Ah, New York.
At any time of year the big apple is home to some of the best entertainment, sightseeing, nightlife, shopping, and food; however, there’s something particularly magical about the holidays in the city that doesn’t sleep.
Whether it first captured your heart in Home Alone 2, where a charming Macaulay Culkin discovers the city solo, or it tugged your heart strings in Miracle on 34th Street, NYC is a festive wonderland.

So, what exactly is the catch to traveling to this nostalgic winter wonderland? It usually costs a pretty penny during the holidays; however, booking your ticket now will save you a ton of money.
We found this ticket with Air Canada from Vancouver that only includes one stop in each direction for $368.64 CAD total including all taxes. Wow!
While that ticket price is a great deal at any time of the year, it is especially good during this magical month. The dates for the airfare are for a week’s stay, from December 2nd – 9th.

Discover NYC
There are a multitude of things to do all year round in New York, but the holidays have some extra perks. You’ll be able to buy virtually every Christmas gift on your list, and from some of the most varied and exclusive shops on the planet. You’ll also be able to go iceskating outside, and there’s warm nuts and cocoa to enjoy after you do. In addition, the enormous Rockefeller tree is a breathtaking sight to behold and perfect for a photo shoot.
Travel Tip: Since NYC is brimming with fantastic entertainment, eateries, sports, shopping and much more, it is always recommended to plan your stay ahead of time. You can purchase a New York City Pass in advance of your holiday which allows you to enter many of the city’s most popular tourist destinations at a discounted price. Also, if you plan to catch a Broadway Show or have a look inside the Statue of Liberty, it is wise to book tickets for both well ahead of your trip as they almost always sell out.
