Question 2

How to book the cheapest flight to Long Island?

Accepted Answer

With some of the most affordable flight deals around, you'll always jet for less with Orbitz. The following handy hints will help you land cheap flights to Long Island — and leave you with more money to play with:

Consider taking off from or landing at alternative airports to save money. Enter your preferred departure and arrival airports in the form fields, then select the 'Nearby airports' function below. It will list your options, if any.
If you're flexible with your itinerary, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link. You'll see the flight deals for the days around your chosen departure. Airfares often vary depending on the day of the week.
You can also hit the 'Show options' link to filter results for your preferred airline, seating class, nonstop flights and refundable flights. Under 'Sort & Filter' to the left, you can even pick the time of day you'd like to fly.
Reserve your fare as soon as you've sorted your travel dates. While it does happen now and then, airfares rarely get cheaper as your departure date nears.
Think about combining your hotels, flights and car rental into one convenient package deal to get more for your money.
Flying during peak season means pricey airfares. Try to plan your trip outside of popular dates, such as Easter, Thanksgiving and school breaks.

What do I need for the flight to Long Island?

Accepted Answer

Whether you're a regular flyer or it's your first time on a plane, you can never be too organized on your trip. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

Make sure you've got your travel paperwork and some identification. For overseas journeys, you'll need your passport. When booking your flights, always use the same details that are written on your current ID.
A well-stocked carry-on bag is a must for any lengthy flight. With a few hours or more up your sleeve, you'll probably long for something to keep you busy while in transit. We suggest a good book or magazine, and something to munch on.
Plane cabins often get chilly. Even if you're traveling during the peak of the Long Island summer, make sure you take some extra layers of clothing just in case.
