Why Choose New York for a City Break?
Iconic Sights
The Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Times Square, the Brooklyn Bridge, the High Line and the Empire State Building — New York's landmarks are instantly recognisable and genuinely thrilling to visit in person.
Great Year-Round
New York is a year-round destination. Spring and autumn offer mild weather and fewer crowds. Winter brings festive magic and Christmas markets. Summer is busy but buzzing with outdoor events and festivals.
Flights from Dublin
Direct flights operate from Dublin to JFK and Newark (EWR) with Aer Lingus, Delta and United. Flight time is approximately 8–9 hours. US pre-clearance at Dublin Airport means you arrive as a domestic passenger.
Where to Stay
Manhattan is the most convenient base, with neighbourhoods including Midtown, the Upper West Side, Chelsea and the Lower East Side each offering a different character. Brooklyn and Queens offer more affordable options with easy subway access.
