Weekend Getaway To New York City

Weekend Getaway To New York City

Location not specified yet

Are you ready to have fun in the big apple and the city that never sleeps!
because we really won’t be sleeping 😉.. All the details pertaining to our Winter NYC trip are as follow:

*** As a preface : Please Throughly read this entire message and if you have further questions please email me at t_bland73@yahoo.com. Please refrain from sending unnecessary questions and comments regarding trip in the chat . Thanks!

All information listed is to be used as a suggested guide, by no means are you subjected to follow the suggested listings. I understand everyone has their own preferences and activities they enjoy doing while traveling.****

Accommodations: There are a plethora of hotels to choose from in the city. The suggested/ recommended hotel of choice is The AC Marriott in Times Square. This is a fairly new, beautiful, and modern hotel in Times Square and an easy ten minute walk from the train station. It has a restaurant and rooftop bar and lounge. The prevailing rates are very affordable at $440 Total with taxes and fees for a king room and $484 Total taxes and fees for 2 double queens. These rates are dynamic. I do suggest booking early for the best rates.

Transportation: Amtrak is suggested mode of transportation. I highly suggest taking Amtrak to NYC as it is a comfortable ride and you do not have to worry about gas, parking and dealing with NYC traffic . I will be departing on Friday, January 30th on train 182( current rate $51) at 10:03 am from BWI Rail Station and returning on Sunday, February 1st on train 145 ( current rate $73) leaving at 12:55 pm from NYP. It is approximately 3 hours each way. The Parking garage rate at BWI rail station is $12 per day. The Rates will vary depending on day and time of departure. However, I will stress the earlier you book train tickets the better the rate. In my experience, I rarely see the rate decrease prior to 45 days in advance of departure. For Amtrak booking make sure you are putting in NYP/ for New York Penn Station Arrival Station which is located in Midtown Manhattan. If you will be staying at the AC Marriott Times Square, it is approximately a ten minute walk from Penn Station.
Keep in mind : these prices are not locked in. They are dynamic and you will be subjected to prevailing prices depending on the time you book. I highly suggest booking early for best pricing.

Dining: Food/Drinks are on your own dime and won’t be provided. We will have a group meal at least once during the trip. More info on the itinerary page.
