If you’d rather avoid airports to travel to your favorite summer destination, you could try the East River instead—but without hopping on a boat.
Catching a sea plane from NYC is a new possibility thanks to Tailwind Air, which connects the Big Apple with just about every New York-favorite summer destination. The company has recently resumed some of its travel routes, but starting on May 25 it is relaunching all the main ones just in time for summer.
Here are all the places New Yorkers can travel to via sea plane starting May 25, according to Tailwind Air’s schedule:
- Boston Harbor (Boston), MA
Flight duration: ~75 minutes
Flight duration: ~45 minutes
Flight duration: ~55 minutes
Flight duration: ~70 minutes
Flight duration: ~75 minutes
Flight duration: ~105 minutes
Flight duration: ~110 minutes
Flight duration: ~30 minutes
Flying from Manhattan to Boston will cost at least $395, while flights from Manhattan to summer destinations start from $695. Bridgeport and Plymouth fares, instead, start from $75 for a one way ticket.
Flights depart from East 23rd Street and FDR Drive in Manhattan, much closer than area airports. For more up-to-date pricing and to book a ticket, you can visit Tailwind Air’s website.
