London to New York in business.

Three things worth knowing.
What our specialists check before they price LHR to JFK.
Departures run from about 8am to 8pm, so this is a daytime crossing: you land in New York the same afternoon or evening. December, with the city’s holiday season, and late September, during the UN General Assembly, are the tightest weeks for business seats. January and February are the easiest.
- When to fly
- Departures run from about 8am to 8pm, so this is a daytime crossing: you land in New York the same afternoon or evening. December, with the city’s holiday season, and late September, during the UN General Assembly, are the tightest weeks for business seats. January and February are the easiest.
- The airports
- At Heathrow, British Airways leaves from Terminal 5, Virgin Atlantic, Delta and American from Terminal 3, and JetBlue from Terminal 2. At JFK, British Airways and American arrive at Terminal 8, Virgin Atlantic and Delta at Terminal 4, and JetBlue at Terminal 5.
- The seat to want
- British Airways’ Club Suite, a lie-flat seat with a door, is on much of its New York fleet but not every aircraft, so check the plane before you book. Virgin Atlantic’s Upper Class and American’s business seats are lie-flat with direct aisle access. JetBlue flies Mint, a suite with a door, on a single-aisle A321.
