If it's EWR, then United is your best bet

like

United

Is that solely because EWR is a United hub? Or any other advantages ?

Can fly from JFK/LaGuardia if it’s really worth it. Do not want to start on a new card program, as I’ll have to use Corporate AmEx for the bookings.
Looking for points to either travel to India or for vacations to Europe S.America etc, and also for class upgrades, seat perks and the like.
Previously Delta had better service and on time % but more expensive for points redemption, United less expensive but worse performance and perks. Do not know the situation currently. Any help please folks ?

Suggest posting this in the overall consulting bowl perhaps? Typically it’s United if EWR. But for Midwest I’ve seen better options from LGA. Delta in a couple of instances.

Yeah, I posted this in the travel bowl

My parents act extremely needy and constantly guilt-trip me for moving out of India. They literally said that they didn't get anything in return for raising and educating us. Isn't it a parent's responsibility to raise their kids? Honestly, they lose my respect every time they do so. I understand if they need more help and support and I'm willing to provide them that, but if they expect me to live with them 24x7, I just can't do that. I've always wanted to live on my own and away from them.

I found some extremely provocative and inappropriate TikTok’s of my cousin’s kid today (8 years old). I’m genuinely concerned. My first instinct was to call my cousin (whom I’m close with, like a sis) and tell her but after giving it some time, I’m on the fence. About a year ago, I found inappropriate TikTok’s of a close friend’s kid and told my friend as soon as I found out. She sounded appreciative that I let her know but TBH, our relationship hasn’t been the same and we rarely talk anymore.
