Enjoy Festive Delights with Flights to New York

There are many attractions to enjoy in New York over the festive period

With Christmas only just around the corner, many Brits are looking to indulge in an unforgettable holiday experience this winter. With New York remaining a popular destination among Christmas shoppers, flights at this time of year are in particularly strong demand. With a fantastic range of Big Apple festivities to enjoy this year, shoppers can enjoy far more than simply ticking off their gift list.

For those really wanting to experience an iconic New York winter, skating at the Rockefeller Centre ice rink is the ideal activity. With the tree officially being lit on November 30th, the destination is one of the top spots in the city at this time of year. Within walking distance is Radio City Music Hall, and one of the city's top music venues annually hosts the Christmas Spectacular featuring the famous Rockettes.

Madison Square Garden is another popular attraction, and this time of year will play host to Cirque du Soleil's Wintuk. In addition, on December 10th, the one-off Z-100's Jingle Ball will take place, playing host to Michael Buble, Katie Perry, Justine Bieber and more in this star-studded event. And for those who can't visit New York without experiencing Broadway, 'A Broadway Christmas' with Marie and Donny Osmond or the festive inspired musical 'Elf' could make for a perfect Christmas.

With a huge number of flights available with carriers such as British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, and Continental Airlines, travelling to America is easier than ever. With the Big Apple only a mere seven hours away, tourists could be enjoying the yellow cab lined streets in no time at all.
