Why now
At $150 per person round trip and nonstop, this fare is $57 below the typical fare on this route. That's 28% under the $207 median of our earlier checks, and it's the lowest we've seen in 30 days. We saw 12 offers for these dates, ranging from $150 to $199. For two people, flights come to $300, and the best-value hotel adds $831 for 3 nights. You leave Orlando on Friday, Nov 13 at 9:15 PM and land at 12:03 AM, so Saturday starts in the city. Mid-November means coat weather, with highs of 47–55°F and lows near 36°F. That works well for a trip built around museums, theater and long dinners. Prices include taxes and fees as we found them and can change, so check the live fare before you plan around it.
The kind of trip this is
This is a cool-weather city trip built around culture, food, shopping and nightlife. It suits a couple or two friends who like walking all day, staying out late and letting the subway handle the rest. The pace is quick: a late Friday arrival, two full days and whatever Monday allows. Fill them with a Broadway show, a museum morning and meals in different neighborhoods.

Questions readers ask
How much is the flight?
It was $150 per person round trip, or $300 for two, on a nonstop Frontier flight, with taxes and fees included when we checked. The next offers we saw were $185 per person, also nonstop. Prices change, so the live fare is what counts.
When does the flight leave and land?
It leaves Orlando International (MCO) on Friday, Nov 13 at 9:15 PM and lands at 12:03 AM on Saturday after 2h 48m in the air. We don't have the return times for Monday, Nov 16.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic trip within the United States, you pay in US dollars, and there's no time difference from Orlando.
What is the weather like?
Seasonal averages show Friday mostly clear at 52°F, then overcast with highs of 47°F on Saturday, 49°F on Sunday and 55°F on Monday. Lows sit near 36°F, so pack a warm coat.
Is 3 nights enough?
It's enough for a solid long weekend. You land just after midnight on Saturday, so you get two full days for a Broadway show, a museum morning, the High Line and the Brooklyn Bridge, plus part of Monday.
What will the whole trip cost for two?
We estimate $2,271 for two: $300 for flights, $831 for 3 nights at Pod Times Square and $1,140 for spending, which works out to $190 per person a day.
