The best day to fly and how far ahead to book shown in this table are built from the prices Priceline customers actually paid for flights to this destination over the past 12 months or more.
Where a route has too few bookings to fill a figure, we borrow the shape from a group of routes with similar price behavior and fit it to the fares booked on that route.
Because past fares don’t reflect today’s market, we then adjust the historical prices for current conditions such as inflation and fuel costs, using the round-trip fares found in recent searches.
The cheapest round-trip and one-way fares, the good-deal price and the best time of day to fly come directly from the fares found in recent searches, not from historical bookings.

Methodology: learn how we calculate these charts
The charts “When is the cheapest time to fly?”, “What's the cheapest day of the week to fly?” and “What do round-trip flights from New York City to the United Kingdom cost?” are built from the prices Priceline customers actually paid for flights on this route over the past 12 months or more.
Where a route has too few bookings to fill every point in a chart, we borrow the shape of the curve from a group of routes with similar price behavior and fit it to the fares booked on this route.
Because past fares don’t reflect today’s market, we then adjust the historical prices for current conditions such as inflation and fuel costs, using the round-trip fares found in recent searches on this route.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about flying from New York City to United Kingdom.
When is the cheapest time to fly from New York City to United Kingdom?
The cheapest months to fly from New York City to the United Kingdom are September and October, with February close behind, based on fares from New York to London and Edinburgh. Late September is the single cheapest period on both city pairs. The priciest months are December and July, with late December the most expensive period.Methodology
These seasonal fares look at the busiest city-to-city routes between the two places (up to four, chosen by scheduled flights) and at the seasonal fare curve Priceline's own archive provides for each route. Months are ranked by how far each month's average fare sits above or below that route's yearly average, taking the middle value across the routes, so one expensive route cannot dominate.
How far in advance should I book flights from New York City to United Kingdom?
For flights from New York City to the United Kingdom, the best booking window is about 4 weeks before departure. This is based on the New York to London and New York to Edinburgh city pairs, where fares are lowest around 30 days out and rise notably when booking very early, around 160 days ahead.Methodology
This booking-window guidance looks at the busiest city-to-city routes between the two places (up to four, chosen by scheduled flights) and at the booking-window fare curve Priceline's own archive provides for each route. The best time to book is the middle value of those routes' cheapest lead times.
What are the most popular cities to visit in United Kingdom?
For the United Kingdom, London is the main gateway with world-class museums, theater and history. Edinburgh offers medieval streets and festivals, Manchester is a lively cultural hub, and Bath or Oxford provide easy day trips by train.
When is the best time of year to visit United Kingdom?
For the United Kingdom, May to June and September to early October usually balance decent weather with lower prices than July and August. Summer is peak season in London, Edinburgh and other popular areas, with higher fares and bigger crowds. Spring and autumn offer milder conditions and lighter visitor numbers, especially if you avoid school holidays and major events.
How do I get to John F Kennedy Intl Airport from the city center?
From downtown Manhattan, the fastest and most popular way to reach John F. Kennedy International Airport is usually a yellow taxi or ride-share, which takes roughly 45–75 minutes depending on traffic and costs a flat fare of $70 plus tolls and fees. A cheaper option is the AirTrain JFK, which connects at Jamaica or Howard Beach to the subway and Long Island Rail Road; the AirTrain fare is $8.75, plus the subway or LIRR fare, and total travel time is about 60–75 minutes. Shared shuttle vans are available and sit in the middle on cost, though they are slower due to multiple stops. Driving and parking at JFK is possible but generally the least convenient for city-center travelers, with on-airport parking lots and higher costs for long stays.References
