Why now
When we checked, the fare was $897 per person round trip, or $1,793 for two, with taxes and fees included. That's $106 below the highest fare we saw for these dates. The 12 offers we checked ran from $897 to $1,003, so this one is 11% less than the top. We don't have enough history on this route to call any fare typical, so that's the comparison we can stand behind. Early December is when London has its Christmas lights, Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park and festive markets. Pack for the weather, with typical highs of 46–49°F, and the normals show rain or drizzle on Dec 4, 7 and 8. This trip is about museums, theater, pubs and markets, not sunshine. Our rough budget for two is $4,742, which covers flights, the Moxy and $1,900 in spending money. Fares change, and this one could too.
The kind of trip this is
This is a winter city break built around culture, history, food and shopping. It suits a couple or two friends who'd rather see museums, theater and long pub lunches than a beach. You set the pace. London's big museums are mostly free, so you can pop in for an hour or get out of the rain, then catch a West End show at night. Everyone speaks your language, so getting around is easy.
