Why now
At $214 per person round trip, this fare is $92 below the typical fare on this route. That's 30% under the $306 median of our earlier checks, and it's the lowest we've seen in 30 days. Across 12 offers we checked, fares ran from $214 to $278. For two, the flights come to $428. Mid-November also comes before December, when the holiday windows and the Rockefeller Center tree push hotel prices to their peak. Pack a coat: highs run 45–55°F, lows sit near 36°F and most days are overcast. That weather suits the things New York does well indoors and on foot, like Broadway, the Met or MoMA, long dinners and a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. Heads-up: this fare lands at SWF, not JFK, and the flight home is an overnight one.
The kind of trip this is
This is a full city week of shows, museums, food, shopping and nightlife. With 7 nights you can take it slow and skip the cramming. It suits couples and friends who like walking all day, staying out late and riding the subway everywhere, and who don't mind cold, gray days. The hotels here are pod rooms, so it works best for people who'll be out more than in.

Where to stay in New York City
We checked three Pod hotels in Manhattan. All are room only with free cancellation. Pod 51 is the best value at $1,432 for 7 nights, or $205 a night, for a Bunk Pod with Shared Bathroom, rated 8.2 from 9,519 reviews. Pod Times Square is the top rated at 8.6 from 16,619 reviews and costs $1,792 for the stay, or $256 a night, for a Bunk Pod. Pod 39 is our budget pick at $1,814 for the stay, or $259 a night, for a Full Pod, rated 8.5 from 9,533 reviews. If you'd like to choose an area first, Midtown puts you near Times Square and the Broadway theatres and has the most hotel choice. The Upper West Side has quieter residential blocks next to Central Park and the museums.

How much is the flight?
It's $214 per person round trip, or $428 for two, on MX with 1 stop, all-in when we checked. If you'd rather fly nonstop, we also found American at $258 per person, leaving at 6:00 AM and landing at 8:52 AM. Frontier was $215 per person with 1 stop.
Which airport does the $214 fare fly into?
It flies into SWF, not JFK, Newark or LaGuardia, the three main New York City airports. Plan your ride into Manhattan before you book. The outbound flight lands at 11:39 AM on Saturday, Nov 14.

It's cold and mostly gray. Typical highs run 45–55°F and lows sit near 36°F. Most days on the trip are listed as overcast, and Thursday, Nov 19 is partly cloudy. Pack a warm coat and good walking shoes.
