Best way to fly from Quito, Ecuador to Las Vegas

All

We need to get from Quito in Ecuador to Las Vegas in May 2025.
I see we can do Copa via Panama, various via Miami and others.

Are there any concerns flying into the US by any particular country? I don't really want to be interrogated at the US border for a poor decision.

No real criteria, one World Preferred for lounge access, single stop preferred and the shortest legs possible without departing or arriving at stupid a.m.

It makes no difference what country you come from, with the possible exception of Cuba.

If you want oneworld I’d suggest AA. You can do one stop via MIA leaving at 2pm and arriving in Vegas at 11pm. You’ll also get access to the Flagship lounge in MIA if you have oneworld sapphire or above.

Thanks. We'll probably do the East Coast USA route with AA, I wasn't sure how the friendly folks employed by Homeland Security treated you when arriving from that part of the world.
