Booking a trip to New York
I know some of you have been to New York from reading various previous threads about recomendations for places to stay and things to do. Now it is many years since I last went to the USA and as there is a significant birthday coming soon I am looking at booking a long weekend for me and the other half.
I was wondering who you booked with? Did you use someone like Virgin or did you use something like Expedia or similar to book? Tbh the missus usually deals with booking holidays and hotel stays etc but as I want to surprise her I do not want to let the cat out of the bag by asking questions about who she usually books with.
The last time I did something similar I used Thomas Cook, but thought they were quite expensive. I could have saved money by booking the flights and hotel directly but as I am lazy I took the easy option and just walked in and asked them to sort everything out.
My thinking this time is the more I save on the flight and hotel the more we will have for excurions, sightseeing and goodies etc.
Any tips and pointers will be greatly appreciated, thanks
