Methodology: learn how we calculate these charts

The charts “When is the cheapest time to fly?”, “How far in advance should I book?”, “What's the cheapest day of the week to fly?” and “What do round-trip flights from New York City to London 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.

The chart “When is the best time of day to fly?” is calculated directly from the fares found in recent searches, not from historical bookings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about flying from New York City to London.

What is the typical flight duration from New York City to London?

Flights from New York City to London cover about 3,440 miles. The typical nonstop flight takes 7 hours 14 minutes eastbound, while the return to New York runs 8 hours 12 minutes — nearly an hour longer, as prevailing winds slow the westbound leg.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Are there any direct flights from New York City to London?

There are plenty of nonstop flights from New York City to London, with British Airways, United, Virgin Atlantic, American, Delta, and JetBlue all currently scheduled nonstop. Service runs daily, with departures from JFK and Newark throughout the day from early morning to late evening. British Airways operates the most nonstop flights at 62 per week from JFK, followed by United with 41 from Newark.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it comes from the fares quoted in the Priceline searches our route pages run for this route, for departures about 17 to 37 days out.

What are the ground transportation options in London?

The Heathrow Express is the fastest way to central London, reaching Paddington in 15 to 20 minutes with trains every 15 minutes. The Piccadilly line on the Tube is the cheapest rail option, taking about 50 minutes for around £5.50 to £5.90, while the Elizabeth line offers a modern, comfortable ride to Paddington and beyond in about 28 to 45 minutes for £13.90. Coaches run to Victoria Coach Station in 50 to 90 minutes from about £10, and taxis or black cabs take at least an hour, costing £75 to £95. Car rental is available at the airport, but driving into London means paying congestion and ULEZ charges.

When is the cheapest time to fly from New York City to London?

Fares from New York City to London are lowest in late September, around $727. September is the cheapest month overall, averaging $742, followed by October ($769) and February ($784). December is the most expensive month at about $938, and fares peak in late December at about $998. The yearly average is $831. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.

How far in advance should I book tickets from New York City to London?

Book about 5 weeks before departure for the best fares from New York City to London, around $670. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $777, $107 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $909. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Booking-window guidance comes from the same monthly in-house analysis of Priceline's own air booking-summary archive. We aggregate the route's bookings by how many days before departure they were made, from about 180 days out to the day of travel, smooth the curve, and highlight the stretch of lead times with the lowest average fare. Thin and international routes borrow the curve shape from the nearest busy routes, anchored to the route's own price level. It reflects current fares and is refreshed monthly.

Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from New York City to London?

Yes, overnight red-eye flights run nonstop from New York City to London every day of the week. British Airways, United, Virgin Atlantic, Delta, American and JetBlue all fly overnight, typically departing between 5:50 PM and 10:15 PM and landing the next morning between 5:50 AM and 10:25 AM.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Which airlines usually operate this route from New York City to London?

British Airways, United Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and JetBlue Airways operate nonstop flights from New York City to London. British Airways flies the most with 62 weekly departures from JFK plus 14 from Newark, while United operates 41 weekly flights from Newark. Virgin Atlantic runs 31 weekly flights from JFK, American has 20, and Delta and JetBlue each fly 14 weekly nonstops from JFK. Typical median fares are around $880 on British Airways, $819 on United, $832 on American, and $935 on JetBlue.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

Which airport should I use in London?

Heathrow is the main choice for most flights from New York, with the most connections and airline options. Gatwick serves some low‑cost and leisure flights, while City Airport is closest to central London and best for business travellers.

How do I get to New York John F. Kennedy International Airport from the city center?

From Manhattan, the yellow taxi to JFK is a flat $70 plus tolls and tip and takes about 35 to 60 minutes, while Uber and Lyft cost $60 to $150 or more with surge pricing possible. The cheapest way is the subway plus AirTrain at $10.75 total, taking 60 to 90 minutes, or the Long Island Rail Road plus AirTrain at $18 to $23, taking 50 to 70 minutes.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from New York City to London?

British Airways operates the most nonstop flights from New York City to London, using the Boeing 777 family including the Boeing 777-300ER. United Airlines flies Boeing 767-300 aircraft, Virgin Atlantic uses Airbus A350-1000s, and JetBlue operates Airbus A321neos. American Airlines flies the Boeing 777 family, while Delta Air Lines uses Airbus A330-200 and Boeing 767-400 aircraft.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.

Which airline alliances serve flights from New York City to London?

Flights from New York City to London are served by airlines from all three major alliances: British Airways and American Airlines (oneworld), United Airlines (Star Alliance), and Virgin Atlantic and Delta Air Lines (SkyTeam). JetBlue Airways also flies the route nonstop and is not a member of any alliance.
