Where to go for a city break?

*flutterby*

In September my partner and I went to New York, had a fab time... Was my first ever holiday and now I have the bug...

We've a week off from 12th-19th Novemeber and are thinking about going away again. Maybe using some of these cheap flights that seem to be around... Anything from 3-5 days really... midweek/weekend... we're not bothered...

I feel confident in being able to find a cheap deal but have no idea where we should go... my main concern is the weather... don't have much knowledge about areas/sites etc... the only place I've come up with so far is Saltzburg because I'm expecting it to be snowy and thought that might be nice

All ideas greatly appreciated!

I want to go to Switzerland after watching Holby last week. ( no I do not wish to go their to die before you ask, but I did notice ow picturesque it looked)

Would you mind me being nosey, and ask approx how much it cost to go to NY? My OH is 30 in May and I would love to treat him but I have no idea what it would cost to do.

Just my bf and I, went begining of September...

Got our flights thanks to this site, Mcr-JFK with BA for £378!!!

Our accomodation was Amsterdam Court, great hotel & location £1200 for 9 nights

Spending money £1700

It's not cheap, we spent much more than we needed to as it was a special treat, you could def do it on a lesser budget so please don't let my figures put you off

Hope this helps you

yes it does, I had looked at T agents and their fights were astronomical, and we could always do accom cheaper than Amsterdam court. Thanks for the info it has given me a good guide to save up for.

Switzerland is lovely in the snow or in the summer, I am confused about when the OP is hoping to have this weekend away?

We are looking at Istanbul for 4 days in November for about £500 for 2, decent hotel and direct flights from Manchester.
