4. Look into the different NYC airports to find bargain tickets. New York has three International airports, La Guardia, Newark and JFK, and the prices to each cacn be quite different. If you don't have a reason to fly into a specific airport you should definitely research the price differences between the three. You could end up saving a couple hundred Euro in the process.

5. Watch ticket prices to determine the trends. Even if you've already booked your ticket you should keep an eye on the prices as some travel agents will credit you the difference should a price decrease after you've purchased.
