What does the budget score mean for New York?
The budget score is not based on the flight price alone. It reflects how affordable the whole trip is likely to be once you add local transport, accommodation, and food & daily spending in the destination.
For New York, 2 / 5 means the fare can still be a great find, but NYC is usually pricey on the ground — hotels, eating out, getting around, attractions, and tips add up fast. We give it a lower budget score so you can plan realistically and enjoy the trip without surprises. A 5 / 5 would be a genuinely cheap flight and a destination where daily costs stay low.
- 1 — Worst for budget: total trip cost tends to be very high
- 2 — Tough on budget overall: the destination is usually expensive day-to-day, even when the flight is attractive
- 3 — Mixed / average: sensible planning keeps costs reasonable
- 4 — Good: generally affordable once you’re there
- 5 — Best: cheap flight + affordable destination — strong value for the full trip
Higher is better: 5 means the combination of fare and on-the-ground costs looks genuinely budget-friendly.
