Moving to NYC to network?

Is it worth moving to NYC to network, or should I stick to calls and Zoom meetings. How big of an edge is in person? I am from Dallas, so I could easily fly out to NYC and stay with a friend and come back for major meetings. I work remotely with a highly flexible schedule so that won't be an issue.

Definitely don’t think it’s necessary to go out of your way and fly all the way to New York just for some coffee chats. I went to a non-target in the Midwest and landed multiple super days without ever going to NYC
