Planning on traveling to NYC from Florida on the 26th of this month. I've been doing a lot of research but i can't find a direct answer for which would be the best airport to arrive at. We don't have anything set in stone, but we plan on staying maybe around lower Manhattan. This is our first time traveling there and I'd prefer the airport that will be the easiest and/or reasonably priced to get from the airport to that area. What is your advice? So far I'm hearing EWR & JFK > LGA.

Hey people,
Looking to book a flight from India to EWR for a family member on tourist visa and I’m very unsure about the allowed flights, issues with transit in foreign countries.

Can I book nonstop flights from Delhi through United or American?

If I'm looking at other airlines, which ones are not an issue for Indian passport holders?

Any resources or insight you can share would be truly helpful!

United lost my son's car seat on a 3 hr flight. It was registered as a checked luggage with the proper csrseat tag and everything. After following up with an agent after we landed, they said it stayed in EWR and they are working to get it shipped to me in the next day or so while I'm on vacation.
Anyway to get points for the inconvenience, I'm Premier platinum if it matters.

They did give me a free loaner carseat until mine arrives but it's kinda crappy tbh.
