That price is fab, who did you book with?
It's an amazing price! We've paid a lot more than that for our upcoming trip.
Hopefully Luke will report back with who he booked with.

It seems that thursday-monday is the cheapest days to go. Does everybody agree with this?
The flight prices start from around £430 (klm) from heathrow to £460 (virgin). I was hoping to get it in under £400 but no joy so far, do you think it's worth me waiting or booking now?
I also looked at the new york palace hotel but to get it within our budget we would needed to do four to a room but we would all prefer 2 to a room.
So I'm also looking at the Library Hotel, Distrikt Hotel and a few others.
If anybody has stayed at either of these, your opinion would be welcome
Hi everyone, great thread
I'm planning a (special ;-) birthday) girlie trip to New York for four nights from 1st December. It seems that thursday-monday is the cheapest days to go. Does everybody agree with this?

I haven't used them but from what I've read people don't recommend them, well not on Trip Advisor or MSE. I believe they basically pick up groups of people and drop them off at their various places in the one trip. So basically you could sit at the airport until they've picked up enough people, then you have to drop them all off at their different locations so you could be first or last off and could end up on the shuttle for 1-2 hours. I think that's possibly what they mean by a will call basis.
Thanks for that .......... yes, just read the reviews and they're dreadful so I'll be giving those a miss!!!! Narrowed it down to a cab company called Dial 7 now ... they seem to have fairly good reviews and are quoting $60 for a minivan from JFK to hotels plus tolls and tip which doesnt seem too bad based on 5 pax.
Thanks for your help
Me again!
Just noticed the NewYorkPass is currently discounted on the direct site to be priced at 2009 prices until this Saturday.
Is this a good deal and should I strike now, or is a better offer likely to come out before the end of the year?
Any advice much appreciated!

I noticed yesterday that Expedia had some good prices for the New York Palace for August starting at £151, I just had to book it
Coming out at $1212 per 3 night stay from the 24th July .... and we need 2 rooms so even with a family discount of 50% on the second room it was still £400 more expensive than Radio City Apartments ....... Completely different class I know but I keep telling myself we will be out and about for most of the day anyhow.
Maybe next time
I'M GOING TO NYC NEXT WEEK!
I can't believe it's come around so quickly... I really need to work on my itinerary.
We've bought tickets to watch Ben Stiller's new play, which should be good. We're also thinking of getting tickets for a musical from the TKTS booth.
How are all your plans coming along?
