Route on the map
When to fly
January brings shorter days and colder weather to the east coast but also tends toward lower demand which affects pricing. September through spring offers longer daylight hours as the season shifts northward. Weekend departures often sit higher than midweek crossings since business travellers fill Friday and Monday seats first. School holidays around Christmas push fares up regardless of airline choice.
Airlines and what to expect
