Your best bet is to check the current status of the mempool yourself before sending coins to determine what should work for a quick confirmation.

Go to https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,2h and pay attention to the last graph on the site. Place your cursor all the way to the far right to see the fee ranges of all currently unconfirmed transactions that are waiting to be picked up. For a quick confirmation in the next few blocks, I would say you need 50-60 sat/vbyte right now. Unless there is a sudden spike of transactions with much higher fees, that should be more than enough.
