Overall Recommendation
If you are looking for time efficiency and comfort, I recommend flying with JetBlue Airways or American Airlines. While air travel comes at a higher cost compared to land travel, the significant reduction in travel time makes it worthwhile. However, if you're on a budget and don’t mind long travel days, taking a Greyhound or FlixBus could be an alternative option.
