Staat New York

Newest Review: ... the airport shuffle service, which cost $28 (excluding tips) to Jersey City. Shuttle or taxi into Manhattan is usually around $45-55. Again saving more money. You are probably thinking well isn't that a little far out? No, transport into Manhattan is actually really easy and still cheaper than staying centrally. PATH train costs $1.75 single or $3.50 return trip into Manhattan. The following stops are: Christopher St, 9th St, 14th St, 23rd St, 33rd St. You can also go straight to the WTC during the week. The train runs 24/7, so if you want to be in the city that never sleeps but actually go back to sleep you can at whatever time you pleas... more

Staat New York: New York, cheaper than Europe? (530 words)

But one thing I do recommend is not actually staying in New York. You save money on the airport ... Read the complete review

We were admittedly slightly apprehensive about going and did consider cancelling the trip altogether, but it was a little too late to rearrange everything and we wanted to make the most out of it. Due to the timing of our flight, we had to stay at one of the many airport hotels at Heathrow. I didnt get a fantastic nights sleep and spent most of it on the floor because the bed was so hard. Nethertheless I didnt let me deter me and I was in full spirits when boarding the plane. No problems with the flight ... Read the complete review

Almost a year ago now - how time flies - l had the joy of a 6 day break in the Big Apple, New Amsterdam, and the city so good they named it twice! Yes lve just spend a break in New York. Santa Claus on Christmas morning in the guise of my wonderful boyfriend Paul saw fit to leave a little envelop saying we were heading to NYC over Valentines Day! How romantic! So Thursday 12th February arrives and Paul and l pack ourselves off to Belfast City Airport to catch our BMI flight to London Heathrow, after navigating ourselves from terminal 1 to 4 and putting in a bit of duty free shopping (2 bottles of Mum Champagne for only £25 bargain!), we head towards ...
