Cheap Flights to Boston (BOS)

Famous for its not so civilised tea party (or revolution to most of us) Boston is awash with history like almost no other city in the United States. Much of its 19th century architecture has been beautifully preserved and becasuse of its compact nature it's an easy place to get around to see all the sights, so you won't need to organise cheap Boston car hire unless you plan to take day trips, or perhaps a road trip to the west coast!

How to get there
Cheap flights to Boston Logan Airport operate from London, Manchester and Belfast with a range of indirect options from other airports such as Birmingham and Newcastle. A flight to Boston takes about 8 hours, and about 7 on the way back by virtue of the jetstream giving your plane a little nudge the whole way home across the Atlantic. The route is covered by a range of scheduled operators such as British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, American Airlines and United who all offer plenty of direct flights. Boston is often the cheapest city to get to in the States bar New York with prices starting at about £240 in winter.

When to go
Boston enjoys a warm summer, pleasant spring and autumn but often cold winters. The peak months of July and August should be avoided if possible to miss the hottest weather and the most expensive prices both for Boston hotels and flights. Boston in April, May and June is very pleasant and much more affordable, while September and October can get expensive due to the 'Fall' season when many tourists flock to New England to see the autumn leaf show put on by mother nature.
