New York (NYC) to Chicago (CHI)

What?! A trip to Chicago! Well, looks like you'll need a ticket from New York pretty soon. Well, unless you'd rather hoof it. And although we agree walking is great exercise, you probably want to get there before the end of the year. Fortunately, you found us. We can get you a fabulous rate on your next flight from NYC to CHI.

How can you get a great rate on tickets from New York to Chicago?

We've been in the game a long time, so we know a couple ways to snag the best deal on your flight to Chicago. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a little know-how.

What is the cheapest day to fly?

It pays to be a weekday warrior. Those middle children of the work week, Tuesday and Wednesday, typically have the best rates. Next, Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most like to fly back on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.

Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?

If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to NYC can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less elastic schedules, so that means more savings for you. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.

Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?

It's all about going to a place when its weather is at its best. Summertime is when Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are at their most popular. Florida, New Orleans, and Southern California are the most popular in springtime. Winter is prime for Mexico and the Caribbean because of its warm weather, as well as ski and snowboard destinations like the Colorado Rockies. During autumn, Northern California, the Pacific Northwest, and New England draw visitors. If you can plan your trip around these peak seasons, you'll not only save money, but you'll typically avoid the crowds. Win-win in our books.

If the price is right, pick it!

Unsurprisingly, you're not the only one looking for a superb bargain on a flight from New York to Chicago. You may lose your opportunity to get the carrier and the time you like.
