Cheap 2 night break in New York

samjones39blue

Can you help!!?? I'm trying to find a flight and hotel (2 nights) in New York. Leaving the 27th April coming back the 29th. Any ideas where to start looking to find the best prices??

Lastminute.com, Expedia, Opodo, Travelocity should all give you some prices to compare. A quick look at them shows rates of around £340+ for flights and two nights in a central hotel.

Have you been to NYC before? Two nights isn't a very long stay if it's your first trip!

How long would you reccommend for a first trip?

Also any advice about what it's like weather wise in September/October?

I am thinking of going transatlantic on QM2 and then flying back silverjet.
I think it might be a bit cold transatlantic in October.

Two nights is a short stay particularly for all that pollution that you will cause.

I've only been once, in December 2006, and stayed six nights, which I felt gave me enough time to 'get settled' and take in a good number of sights. Still a lot I didn't get to see, though. Just means I'll have to go back!

The cruise ship and the flights are already going anyway, with or without me on them :-)

For 2 nights you could stay on UK time to avoid jet lag.

For two nights in NYC by the time you get to the hotel and settle in and have a look around it will be time to come back! Done it for three nights and that was a bit of a let down previously 1 week or 2 but two nights is a lot of wasted money.

I just did 4 nights but the flights were timed so that we pretty much got 5 full days (arrived in the morning left at night) and that was about right. Would have liked another night looking back on it. Certainly wouldn't do less then 4 nights. There'd be very little point.
