Calgary to New York City | $354 roundtrip after taxes

New York City

United Airlines looks to have just dropped many of their airfares throughout the year from Calgary to New York City down to $354 roundtrip after taxes.

Cheap dates are available in every month between April 2013 and February 2014!

Philadelphia has also dropped to a similar price level on United, throughout the year.

Update March 21: Wow, United's prices have dropped even a little further, down to $330 roundtrip after taxes to New York and Philadelphia.

Direct flights to Chicago have also dropped to a pretty decent price of around $360, on Air Canada and WestJet, between now and June.

The easiest way to find the cheap date combinations is using Google Flights Explorer.

Use 'United States' as your destination.

Screenshot from Google Flights Explorer:


NOTE: Google Flights Explorer only displays fares up to about 6 months ahead. If you're looking for flights in October and later, try a 3 day flexible date search on Kayak to see what's available.

As is usually the case with these unadvertised drops on United, it's hard to say when they'll put the price back up.

    CHRIS! Thanks!

    Booked. Anonymous because I am surprising my wife with a 6 day trip in May.

    I happened to have a credit with united, so that made it even better!
    $356 pp for the dates I chose.

    I got your email while working out on my sales floor. We had been discussing New York last night. So I ran up to the office, picked a set of dates and booked!

    Thanks Chris,
    Great find :)

    Guess I have my research set out for me tonight on what to go see.

    Already viewed the Mets/Yanks schedule for a baseball experience :)

    All the dates I have tried have been $450+

    Is there a trick to this?

    hey! I'm trying it too, and having no luck...I couldn't get the google explorer to show any results...when I look at flights by month, there isn't anything cheaper than 450, and that's only for the next few months...then it goes up a lot.

    Certain dates might be selling out. Which dates are you trying?

    I can see plenty of dates throughout the year for $345 in Google Flights Explorer. Clicking through from Google to United Airlines, the flights are bookable.

    I'm looking for anytime in October that has those dates really...I can't get google explorer to work for me, it keeps saying no flights available...I'll try again

    I did a trip to NYC last May...get tickets to a Yankees game on StubHub! They tend to be cheaper than the official website because MLB teams play so many games a year. The new yankee stadium is amazing!

    Also, I saw the Rangers in the playoffs...man, that was fun!

    I couldn't find the new rates at all. Hey Chris, is there a trick to this?

    Has Chris_Myden been here?
       Chris_Myden on March 20th, 2013

    Nope, there aren't any tricks to it. I'd certainly mention it in the blog post if there were :)

    Those of you having trouble, are you able to see a fare of $345 mentioned anywhere in Google Flights Explorer as you browse through the date combinations?

    Is it when you click through to United that you don't see the price?

    Hey Chris
    Are you all finding NYC deals w/ 1 connection? Any non-stop direct flights @ $354 price all in? Haha maybe wishful thinking ;) Happy travels!!

    I'm assuming those who couldn't find dates were searching direct flights? Not sure. Ones I booked were 1 stopover of 58 min

    I'm having trouble booking! Trying to book over new years.
    On after submitting pay information, it says "error". Tried calling United directly and they don't even know about the deal.

    Any ideas?

    Have you tried entering your dates on Orbitz or any other 3rd party booking engine to see if it can be booked?

    Can still see flights for $336 on United website after clicking through from Google. Maybe just certain dates are higher.
