Route on the map
When to fly
Travel between the main holiday periods often offers better value than peak summer weeks or December festive travel. June stands out as the cheapest month on this route, with prices also reasonable in late May and early July before the mid-summer rush begins. Booking well ahead of school holidays and around New Year helps avoid seasonal price spikes.
Airlines and what to expect
Some carriers operate as low-cost airlines where fares are lighter and extras cost more, while others provide full-service connections through their hubs with included meals or baggage. Transavia France and Vueling Airlines tend toward lower base prices, whereas Aegean Airlines, Olympic Air, Sky Express, British Airways, Etihad Airways, Finnair and Iberia typically include checked bags and in-flight service on connecting tickets.
Arriving — New York

Check before you book
- Verify passport validity and visa requirements before booking flights to the USA.

- Check whether connecting flights appear on separate reservations, which can mean missing onward travel.
- Allow time between arrival at New York airports and your final destination accommodation.
- Consider whether June pricing still applies when travel falls outside that window.
