About flying to New York

New York is served by JFK, Newark and LaGuardia, and the transatlantic market into the city is one of the most competitive anywhere. Multiple carriers fly the same European city pairs daily, which means fares move often and the spread between providers can be large.

For travellers from Europe this is a route where tracking genuinely pays. Fares on the busiest corridors swing by hundreds over a booking window, and a fare that looks unremarkable in July can look excellent in February.

Arriving at John F. Kennedy International

JFK is in southern Queens, roughly 25 km from Midtown, reached by AirTrain plus subway or rail in about an hour, or by taxi in 45–70 minutes depending on traffic. Newark is a similar distance from Manhattan and often cheaper to fly into from Europe.
