Why go now
At $484 per person round trip, this nonstop fare is $4 under the $488 median of our 5 earlier checks on this route, or 1% lower. The lowest we saw was $483, so this is a fair, steady price rather than a dramatic drop, and we'd rather tell you that straight. For two, the flights come to $967 all-in, taxes and fees included, as found when we checked; prices move and nothing is held. Mid-November is coat weather, with highs of 45–55°F and lows near 36°F, which suits museums, theater and long dinners more than lazy park days. November is also the month of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the NYC Marathon. Our rough budget for two lands at $5,041 for the week, including $1,413 for the hotel and $2,660 for spending.
The kind of trip this is
A full week of city vacation: Broadway, big museums, skyline views and a restaurant for nearly every cuisine, all reachable by subway. It suits couples and friends who like to walk a lot, eat well and go out at night. With 7 nights, the pace can stay relaxed, mixing one big sight a day with neighborhood wandering. Pack warm layers for gray, chilly November days.
