So my family is coming into town to visit us in the Delray/Boca Raton area. They asked weather they should fly into Ft Laud or West Palm? I didn't know?

Which is nicer? More convent?

And should I consider telling them to fly into Miami international

Their coming from NYC

I would fly to whichever is cheapest and/or has the schedule that suits me best.

I agree which ever is the cheapest, no point in them flying into MIA.

Palm Beach International would be closer to Delray/Boca, but not by much.

It is a smaller, quieter airport too.

Fort Lauderdale is also a very nice airport. Just a little bigger.

West Palm and Ft. Lauderdale are much less hectic than MIA.

Domestic flight, no connection, won't make much of a difference. Ft. Lauderdale is a much busier airport. Palm Beach is not that busy. Depends on the price and schedule of the flight. MIA is too far to consider it.

Price? go with what's cheaper.

Distance? probably the Palm Beach airport is closer but the train (commuter rail / Tri-Rail) goes to all of them and has a stop in Del Ray so you have that convenience and won't have to drive or go through any of the negatives of driving.

Sidenote: the main airport in Palm Beach is not called West Palm Beach airport is not even in WPB, it's called Palm Beach airport. Funny enough, the Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood airport is in neither Ft. Laudy or Hollywood, it's in Dania Beach, I believe lol.

Why would u consider flying ur guests from NYC into Miami then? It's like over an hour away from Delray Beach.. . . Miami isn't even close to delray. ..

have them fly into pbi or ft. lauderdale. That's it.
