Cheap flights from Genoa to New York

May is usually the cheapest month on this route, so start your search there if your dates are flexible. The rest of the year rises and falls with school holidays, the destination's summer and the Christmas-New Year period, and midweek departures can differ from weekend ones. Compare a few dates on either side of your preferred week, because the same connection can price very differently across adjacent days. If you must travel in peak periods, book earlier and keep the connection time generous.

Because there are no direct flights, every itinerary connects somewhere, and that connection adds time, a second airport and another chance for delay. The list includes Volotea, Vueling Airlines, Aeroitalia, ITA Airways, Air France, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa, Air Dolomiti, United Airlines and Eurowings Discover. Some sell unbundled fares where bags, seats and meals may cost extra, while others include more in the base fare, so read the fare rules before you pay. A single ticket keeps the connection protected; separate tickets do not.

Arrange your onward transport and the correct arrival airport before you land, because all three airports sit outside Manhattan. Newark Liberty International, John F Kennedy and La Guardia each have trains, subways, buses, taxis or rideshares into the city, but the right option depends on the airport and the time of day. Allow transfer time for traffic and for the airport's own transit links, and confirm terminal and baggage arrangements on arrival. If your flight lands late, check that your chosen transport still runs.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check whether checked bags, seat selection and meals are included or charged separately on your fare.
• Check which New York airport your ticket names, since Newark Liberty International, John F Kennedy and La Guardia lead to different journeys into town.
• Check whether your connection is on one ticket or separate tickets, because protection and baggage rules differ.
• Check passport and US entry requirements before you book, including any required travel authorisation.
• Check that your dates and connection time allow for peak periods and a terminal or airport change.
