Top tips for finding a cheap flight from New York to London

  • For travellers looking to fly from New York to London, you have a range of flights and airports to choose from. In New York you can fly either from JFK or Newark (EWR), arriving in Heathrow (LHR). Daytime flights generally go from JFK to Heathrow (LHR), with Virgin Atlantic, KLM, or Air France. Overnight options include Austrian Airlines and United Airlines flights from Newark (EWR) to Heathrow (LHR). If you prefer to fly from LaGuardia (LGA), there are indirect flights via Orlando with British Airways, or via Charlotte (CLA) with American Airlines.
  • If you’d like to relax in a lounge before flying, at JFK you’ll fly out from Terminal 1, 2, or 4 depending on the airline. Terminal 1 offers the Air France and Lufthansa lounges. In Terminal 2 there’s the Delta Sky Club, and Terminal 4 has a plethora of lounges including Delta Sky Club, Virgin Clubhouse, and Wing Tips. If you’re flying from Newark (EWR), each terminal offers several lounges. Terminal A has the American Airlines lounge, Terminal B has the Delta Sky Club and the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse, and Terminal C has the United Club.
  • Since you will likely want to arrive at the airport at least two hours before your flight from New York to London, an excellent way to pass the time before your trip will be a must. British Airways First Lounge takes airport lounges to a new level. This lounge features a wine room, an opulent bar, and a secluded work area, as well as an upscale dining room. With upscale features like these, you will be downright disappointed when they call for boarding for your flight.
  • For families with infants, JFK has several nursing rooms around the airport. There are nursing stations in Terminal 1 by the Air France lounge, by Gate C70 in Terminal 2, and at Gates A3 and B31 or by the West Retail Hall in Terminal 4. At Newark, there are also plenty of nursing stations in Terminals A, B, and C.
  • If you or a member of your family needs help with accessibility, both JFK and Newark (EWR) offer full wheelchair services, oxygen, and kerbside unloading areas for passengers and baggage. Any help should be arranged directly with your airline. Within the airport, there is customer care staff on standby to assist – look for them in their red jackets.
  • For travellers seeking to change money before they fly, JFK has several places where you can do so. In Terminal 1 there’s a currency exchange shop at the departures level W near the concourse gates 1–3. In Terminal 2, there’s a Travelex branch near Gate 61. Newark (EWR) has multiple Travelex branches in Terminals B and C.
  • Upon landing on your flight from New York to London, you will need to clear both U.K. Border Force passport control and U.K. customs. While there is no guaranteed way to speed up this process, one way to expedite the procedure is by signing up for the U.K. registered traveler service. Members will enjoy faster entry at passport control since you can use ePassport gates and will not have to fill out a landing card, undergo an interview, or have any fingerprints taken as a visa holder.
  • Gone are the days of needing to go to a U.S. bank to get a bunch of European currency or traveler's checks before your trip. ATMs are just as plentiful in Europe as in the United States and the fees and exchange rates you will pay using your debit card to make purchases or get cash will be far less than traveler's checks and credit cards.
  • If you are connecting to a flight to another destination after your flight from New York to London, you generally will not have to pick up your checked bags. Once you exit the plane, you can follow the purple signs for flight connections. You will need to pass through border control and, if you are going to a different terminal, you may have to pass through security again.
  • By far the most budget-friendly way to get to London from the airport is the London underground. One thing to note is that, while this is an excellent option for your wallet, it may prove difficult if you have a lot of baggage to carry since space may be tight and there will be quite a few escalators and stairs to navigate.

Bring your own wired headphones and two pin 3.5mm adapter if you want a decent sound experience from the in flight entertainment. If you're vegetarian, there will be an option in flight - no need to order through your booking before the trip.
CynthiaFlew with IberiaMay 2024
If you have a connecting flight it can be a bit confusing. Make sure you have enough time between flights. The flight to London was great. It's the airport experience, including all the security, which stresses you out.
JordanFlew with British AirwaysMay 2024
Connections can take some time to figure out at LHR. They often don’t assign connecting gate till just before boarding. So be ready for that.
Verified travelerFlew with LufthansaMar 2024
United was very attentive, with plenty of meals, service, and good entertainment. London Heathrow is a good airport to fly into.
VaitsaFlew with British AirwaysApr 2024
Be early and pay attention to gate changes.
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysFeb 2024
BA is the only check in located on the first floor of Terminal B behind the baggage ans escalators. It is very hard to find. However, arriving early meant check in was a breeze and NO LINE at security. That has never happened at any airport. They are doing it right.
leaniepenneFlew with British AirwaysJan 2024
Dress appropriate for the season and be comfortable, arrive early for checking in case there are unexpected changes or delays.
JustinFlew with Norse Atlantic UKFeb 2024
Travel in relaxed clothes. Don’t over-eat. Avoid caffeine and alcohol.
