Delta Air Lines and United Airlines both operate hubs at one end of this route, so nonstop or single-connection service is usually available, along with American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and Alaska Airlines. Our agents can book any of them and compare fare classes side by side.
2,563 miles is a serious flight, roughly 5h 31m nonstop, and it is the range where premium economy or a domestic first-class seat can be worth asking about, particularly on midweek departures when upgrade fares drop.
In our recent fare history for this pair, the lowest prices were recorded on Alaska and United. That mix changes week to week, which is why an agent checks every carrier rather than assuming the cheapest one from last month.
Prices are currently low for this route. Typical one-way lows run $394 to $416 by month; the lowest fare recorded recently was $327.
Lowest recorded one-way fare per month. Green marks the cheapest month.
Winter fares out of the Northeast peak around the holidays and February school breaks; late April to early June and September to early November are usually the calmest on price.
On this specific route our fare history shows December as the cheapest month and January as the most expensive, a spread of $235 between the two.
Midweek travel almost always beats weekends on price here. If your dates are flexible by a day or two, tell the agent; shifting a Friday departure to Thursday or a Sunday return to Monday is the single most reliable way to cut the fare.
For domestic travel, booking three to eight weeks ahead usually captures the best price. Inside two weeks, fares climb; more than four months out, airlines have not yet released their cheapest inventory.
