Standby Travel MIA-NYC Which Airport ?
Guys ...
I'm planning to travel on 10th June (Monday) morning from Miami to NYC in AA using a OneWorld other airline standby ticket.
I don't have a specific choice so any of the 3 airports serving NYC is fine more me to travel.
Considering it's a Monday morning traveling to a business hub, I have a fair doubt that flights will be highly occupied.
Can you guys suggest me to which airport (JFK, EWR, LGA) I can expect the least flight occupancy ?
Thanks,
Rahal

I recommend downloading the app Stafftraveler.

But from what I can tell you, Monday's are notoriously bad for business heavy routes such as New York. Just having a look, I can tell you that LGA looks the worst out of the three for a non rev that day.

I would try EWR, but I agree with zondaracer, that route on a Monday morning will be a cluster. If you have the ability to get to FLL, Spirit is showing an $82 confirmed fare to EWR. Even with a bag fee, that's still around $120. Might be worth exploring.
AA MIA-NYC flights have been oversold lately due to the Max being taken out of service on that route. Even when the max didn’t have issues it was difficult at times to even get the jumpseat.
expect to get bumped many times by AA non-revs. You may get lucky though.
i would have a backup plan.
