New York City from Norfolk, Nov 19–23: $1,742 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- $377 per person, $326 below the typical fare on this route
- Times Square hotel rated 8.4 from 4,624 reviews, free cancellation
- Four nights for Broadway, the Met and the Brooklyn Bridge
The catch: The cheapest fare has two stops and 1,026 minutes of travel for a 297-mile trip, and resort fees and a checked bag are not in the total.
Worth it if you'd trade a long travel day for a $1,742 city getaway; skip it if you need a quick, simple flight.
Worth it if you can live with two stops: $1,742 for two, the flights at $753 plus 4 nights at The Mayfair Hotel Times Square, an Ascend Collection at $989, taxes and fees included. You leave Thursday, Nov 19 and come home Monday, Nov 23, 2026 on F9 (Frontier), with two stops, not a nonstop.

Why now
The fare is the story: $377 per person, $326 below the typical fare on this route, which is $703 by the median of our earlier checks. That's 46% under, and it's the lowest we've seen in 30 days; across 12 offers, fares ran from $377 to $509 per person. Add 4 nights at a Times Square hotel and the trip comes to $1,742 for two, taxes and fees included, before resort fees, a checked bag or spending money. Late November brings typical highs of 45–51°F and lows near 35°F, so it's coat weather and museum weather. November is also the season of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the NYC Marathon, so expect a busy city. These prices are what we found when we checked, and they can move.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city trip built on walking: Broadway, big museums, bridges and a restaurant for every cuisine, all reachable by subway. It suits a couple or two friends who like full days on foot and dinners out, at a brisk pace in cold-weather layers. It's less for anyone after a pool, a beach or a slow, quiet getaway.
