Have you checked out flying from Great Falls Montana instead of Calgary? It isn't that far of a drive, about five hours. And it may be cheaper to fly from within the states. <BR><BR>On www.travelocity.com, the fares average about $250 US from Great Falls to NYC.<BR><BR>I actually just checked Travelocity.com for yyc to nyc with flexible dates and it is even cheaper than from Great Falls. On Delta, only $202/USD. <BR><BR>Hope this helps and good luck.

As with any airfare, it can be considerably cheaper going during the week than on weekends. It is also way cheaper if you go a "roundabout" way rather than direct. Go to Air Canada's website, and try plugging in different departure and return days on thier "fare finder". You may be surprised what a difference a day makes.

I live in NYC and drove to Regina, SK in November. 4 days, 3 nights. It could have been more efficient but my brother-in-law insisted on driving the entire trip (about 7 hours a day). Long, detailed story, won't bore everyone. Traveled with my dog, therefore stayed at Holiday Inns etc - very cheap. The most difficult leg is through Chicago, if you would like my route etc, please email directly. I won't bore everyone with details. <BR><BR>With respect to flying, I always use air points to visit my family in Canada. It is simply too expensive to fly to Regina. Although, Calgary must have better access and competition than Regina. <BR><BR>Also, where you are going in NY will impact your cost point, NYC is much more expensive than Albany. <BR><BR>Good Luck! Hope you come to NY - we need visitors! You will love it!<BR><BR>Wendy

Hi Canuck! I was just looking at Air Canada's website and seems that there are some spring and summer seat sales. Prices from Calgary to New York (La Guardia airport) are $558.00 for the spring sale, and $608.00 for the summer sale- return. I do not think these include all the taxes. Sometime in April they are going to add a additional $24.00 in taxes, so they say book now if you wan't to avoid. Above prices in Canadian dollars. Hope this helps.
