Why now
$867 per person is $192 below the typical fare on this route, which is $1,059, so you'd pay 18% less. It's also the lowest fare we've seen on this route in 30 days. Across 12 offers we checked, fares ran from $867 to $982, so this one sits at the bottom. The price includes taxes and fees as found, but fares move and we can't promise it'll hold. Early December is when London puts up its Christmas lights, opens Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park and fills up with festive markets. Expect highs of 46–49°F, lows near 39°F, and some overcast or rainy days, which is good weather for museums, pubs and theatre. For two, our rough budget is $4,682 all in: $1,734 for flights, $1,048 for the Moxy and $1,900 for spending money.
The kind of trip this is
This is a winter city break built around culture, history, food and holiday shopping. It suits a couple or two friends who like walking all day, ducking into museums and pubs when it rains, and seeing a show at night. The pace is up to you: busy sightseeing in the daytime, slow evenings under the Christmas lights. Everyone speaks English, so it's an easy first trip to Europe.

It's out in Newham, so plan on some time on transit. The Royal Horseguards Hotel, London is the top rated at 8.6, and it costs $2,477 ($495 a night) without free cancellation. It's in Westminster / St James's, which puts Big Ben, the Abbey and the royal parks on your doorstep.

Good to know
- Passport: passport needed: travellers from the United States need a valid passport for London; check the expiry rule of the country before you book.
- Currency: British pound (GBP).
- Christmas lights, Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park and festive markets
- You'll need a passport. The currency is the British pound (GBP), and London is 7 hours ahead of Salt Lake City.
- The outbound and the return together take 52h 57m with 3 stops, and you land at STN rather than Heathrow.
- You leave Thursday, Dec 3 at 11:11 AM and land Friday, Dec 4 at 3:35 PM, so your first hotel night comes before you arrive.
- The return leaves Tuesday, Dec 8 at 9:35 AM and lands in Salt Lake City Wednesday, Dec 9 at 10:08 AM.
- All three hotels are room only. Only Moxy London Stratford has free cancellation.
