Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Wellington Intl. Airport (WLG) to John F. Kennedy Intl. Airport (JFK) last minute?
When it’s time to book your flights, being prepared pays dividends. While it may be possible to pick up a last-minute deal on a WLG to JFK Airport flight, tickets usually don’t get cheaper as the date of departure nears. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the sweet spot to lock in a domestic flight is between 28 – 35 days in advance. For international flights it’s three to four months.
What airports do you fly into for New York from Wellington?
John F. Kennedy Intl. Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA) and Liberty Intl. Airport (EWR) are your options when taking off from Wellington to New York. Approximately 13 mi southeast of central New York, John F. Kennedy Intl. Airport (JFK) is the city’s main gateway. Consider factors like flight schedules and the distance to your hotel before deciding where you fly into.
