Route Overview

60% off Portland to New York flights. If you fly Portland (PDX) to New York (LGA) even twice a year, you are leaving money on the table at $273 standard fares. This 2,439-mile sector flies in about 5h 35m and is one of our best-performing domestic routes, where we consistently see $109 one-way deals — savings of 60% versus booking directly.

New York is a pair of world-class airports feeding the most densely packed metro in the US. Whatever pulls you there — business, family, getaway — the fare strategy is the same: don't book the first price you see. Portland is a high-traffic market, which means strong competition on the PDX–LGA sector and real room for agent deals.
