Public Transportation and Navigating the Big Apple – plus a personal experience

For those visiting New York for the very first time, it can feel a bit overwhelming to face such a huge metropolis. Of course, Budapest is also a large city – no doubt about it – but our 4 metro lines can’t really compare to New York’s 36 subway lines (marked with numbers and letters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, J, L, M, N, Q, R, S, T, Z).

EVERY SEASON HAS ITS OWN MAGIC

If you’ve decided that New York is your next destination, the next big question will be: “But when should we go?” Needless to say, New York is dazzling year-round, but each season holds its own unique charm…

Let’s look at the key factors to consider when choosing your travel dates.

HOW TO SEARCH FOR FLIGHTS TO NEW YORK?

There are two main ways to find a good deal on a flight to New York. The first is to use flight-booking portals, which are extremely useful tools for quickly and easily comparing prices and options. The alternative (or rather, a complementary approach) is to check the websites of airlines that operate direct flights to New York.

If someone had told me a few years ago that I’d be living in New York, running my own travel agency, and welcoming guests into my own apartments, I probably would have just smiled in disbelief. And yet—here I am, in one of the world’s most exciting cities, where every single day brings new opportunities.

But how did I get here? To understand that, we need to rewind a little. Back to military training camps, to Sicily, and eventually, across the Atlantic Ocean—all the way to New York.
