What’s the best carrier if I will be traveling ORD-LGA every week for the year? Been thinking about switching from AA (Platinum Pro) to Delta (Platinum Medallion).

AA just announced that route is now a shuttle (as of this March I believe), with free beer and wine in coach

If you're based out of ORD Delta doesn't make much sense, do UA or AA... if you're based out of LGA do Delta.

UA I think - Chicago is a hub

What is your objective? With Delta upgrades will be highest likelihood on that route. Pick AA or UA for better international alliance status. As you probably know, AA tends to be most restrictive on elite free flight changes.

Yea with the AA shuttle this will get interesting. Have done delta most of the time and preferred it and almost always get first. Though I would rather have AA miles than delta

United

Why get free beer and wine in coach when you could just get free beer, win, and liquor in comfort+ or first? Go Delta

Delta always. You get more benefits on AF/KL/AM than on star alliance partners. Preferred seating is easily the best. Even LH doesn’t give you that

1. Open a Vanguard Invest account
2. Look for Fidelity ETFs that are similar to Vanguard ETFs
3. Use smaller brokerages like SoFi l, Robinhood etc.

I really do not want to manage nor be active. My goal is to log-in like once every 6 months.

Thank you all.

Weekend thought as many of us watch our portfolios bleed away value as the market hit all time highs: stick with it. This is a very difficult time in the market so try to figure out what’s not working and fix it. Stick with your process while trying to improve it. That should you you in the best place to manage risk now and be positioned to capture new opportunities in the coming weeks and months. Discipline, execution, and patience are key sources of alpha.
