Flying commercial to New York City, which airport?

Newark for me. Flights are generally cheaper and so is the ground transportation. You're a straight shot to the Lincoln Tunnel or you can train it into Penn Station. They also have Newark shuttle busses which will run about $30 one-way IIRC.

www.aa.com thinks there are daily flights between DFW and EWR. Otherwise I wouldn't even consider it.

You are correct about status. Not much beats Executive Platinum. (American equivalent of United 1K)

AA must have restarted those cause for a couple of years [prob until the USAir merger] they had pulled out of EWR. They're back in a few places since then - notably Burbank around here.

But if you are going to be doing DFW-EWR/JFK/LGA weekly for a while - I'd definitely buy an aairpass . . .

@labbadabba - there are no non-stop flights on AA to HPN from DFW - only go through ORD and you're just asking for trouble there-

My comment re: KHPN was directed at another poster who lives in CT who flys into Stewart. I guess if she's up in Danbury or something that makes sense. KHPN is great if you're flying around the East Coast. But yeah, I don't think there are many direct flight options coming from the West.
 
Unless you're coming from Chicago or Atlanta, you're pickin's at HPN are pretty lean.

Never been to HPN... I live in CT but have a cabin in NY about a half hour drive from SWF, so that makes it more convenient (any excuse to stay overnight at the cabin). And even straight from CT, I can shoot out Rt. 84 and I'm right there.
