Not to be missed in New York?

[Guest]

Starting to get more organised now. 11weeks to go. So far I've booked, New York explorer pass( 5 trip pass) , ESB queue jump pass, lion king tickets on Broadway and Christmas spectacular tickets ( Santa hat day! ) at RCMH . Still loads more to plan but feeling more organised now. Also stocked up on Dollars and took a Fair FX card for shopping. Decided to have a
'kitty' with my Mum for food and drinks. Also started buying thermals! Getting mega excited now. Been watching gossip girl for tips. Cannot wait!

Great thread! I'm planning on surprising my DH and DS's two days before we go for 40th/10th birthday celebrations! Eeeeek!

Planning this in secret is so hard but it'll be worth it. I've found a great deal in BA sale so going to book tonight. Sooooo excited!

I know what you mean about secret planning. We're going to florida next may. Have had it booked since April and we haven't told the kids. Trying to keep it quiet til Christmas. I've nearly put my foot in it loads of times. Happy planning!

We went to Woodbury Coomon in February booked it via Groupon, it is about an hour's drive. We got some great buys whilst we were there.

Try and fit a visit into Ellen's Stardust Diner it is great.

I was the same before we went! I only prebooked a couple of things, and bought no pass. We went for 6 days, and when we got there it all just fell into place. I probably wouldn't buy a pass next time either, so many places are free.

We're going soon and I feel overwhelmed I haven't booked any passes as I've been reading that sometimes the queue to exchange the passes was longer than the actual ticket queue

Would like to see a show but not sure where to look online anyone got a good site for this?

So far we have booked the Buddakan and I want to go to Ellen's and also Empire Diner

But that's it. We'll wait to see what the weather will be like for the skyscrapers and decide on the day or the day before looking at the forecast. If it's fully booked we'll just do something else.


Did anyone else go jogging in central park or hire bikes there?
