Starting a new project in KY and can't fly JetBlue out of Boston anymore... Since I'm starting from scratch with new airlines, do you all recommend Delta or American? (No status with either rn)

I fly American because there's a flight every hour and thirty from O'Hare to Boston. Likewise from PHL. If you Connect via DTW or ATL you have one maybe two chances to connect back. So you could be screwed

like

Yeah, Louisville is a million times better than LEX. If you have a status challenge, maybe go with that. Delta is definitely easiest from BOS, and I prefer its connecting airports.

Also, I do know some folks flew direct to CVG and drove down. Not sure if that's an option.

Delta. American sucks

Delta no question

Delta is a better airline. I choose AA because of more international routes when I want to blow my miles. Also, the delta seat thing is ridiculous. I'm sure American will move to it in the next 6 months but damn, upgrade list to comfort? F that.

I've been in boston 8 years and have managed to only fly American once including multiple trips to Dallas. JetBlue is first. Delta second.

Louisville - I'm actually really excited; I've heard very good things. Either way I have to connect. AA would connect through CLT or DCA, and delta would connect through ATL or DTW

@A9: Tell those Muggles your anonymous friends agree that AA sucks hard. Out of the major airlines, only United can compete.

AA is the worst !

Been exec plat with AA for a while and agree. It sure as hell sucks. Even the international partners for AA (e.g. British) fuck you over when you try using miles. Would recommend Delta.
