    You gotta know when to Oldham & Know when to fold em !! The carter is a shambles even at reception. We stayed in the westin back in 2007 (when rates were good) and you could see the back of the carter it had curtains ripped and hanging off , water ? running out of pipes onto the back yard lghts without shades hanging. Minging place

    Question for anyone familiar with flights from London:

    I'm looking to go in the 2nd half of May, and can currently get return flights (direct) for just over £400. Is that likely to be the best I can get, or should I wait for them to get cheaper? What's the best sort of price I can hope for during that time of year?

    Can get alot more expensive but wont get much cheaper . I am not a london traveller but prices in the 300s are very rare now esp.direct . Book it if your sure your going .

    Going back next month for my 3rd visit! So excited. Booked Knicks tickets for 29th Feb on stubhub. Really looking forward to that. Also planning on going up the ESB for the first time (hoping its quieter in Feb!) been up TOTR 3 times (love it!) but feel the need to do ESB now. Also going to the Met for the first time.

    Aha, I didn't even realise. You've got a sharp eye!

    Is it strange that I've been to New York twice and have yet to go to ESB or TOTR?! Might definitely pay a visit this time come March.

    Also, need more ideas on how to present this holiday as a present for the girlfriend! I was going to put the boarding pass inside of a NYC Guide book for her but obviously you dont get the pass till a day before you go. Ive got her an NYC guide but Im not sure what else I can do to say HEY! WERE OFF TO NYC.
  • Hey guys, Ive found some cheap flights for you all departing heathrow to JFK for as little as £299 return! Just to make you aware as this is the primary NYC board.
