It’s the LGA shuffle most of the time. In the jumpseat 20% of time. Middle seat, last row, between seat straining passengers 40% of time. But the other 40% I get upgraded to mediocre.
Nothing beats a trans con red eye followed by a one hour $42 Uber between JFK-LGA and a 3.5 hour flight home.

Always full. I don’t know what you mean when you say good options to JFK. In 4 years Ive never seen “good” flight loads. Twice I spent 4 hrs in a 175 or CRJ jumpseat as a last resort.
