My wife and I would like to take a trip to NYC from San Francisco.
Any thoughts on when would be the best time to do this, this year, as vaccinated people? Is the city more or less open - what has sort of permanently changed about a long weekend trip?

Any time, go in late May when it warms up a bit but not yet super touristy. Things are not as shuttered or dire as the news would lead you to believe. The city is open and hotel vacancies are high, you can get nightly rates under $100 in prime Manhattan locations. I’d expect this to change starting in June+ as the entire US becomes vaccinated and international borders open.

My guess is mid-late Summer or early Fall. Stuff is opening up but the city is scarred from early outbreaks and isn’t likely to want to rush the opening. That said, when people can be outside, you have loads of options. Early fall might have fewer tourists?

I’d go for September if you can wait that long. Things should be pretty open (right now it’s “kind of” open), and the weather should still be warm enough to be outside.

Wait for Broadway to fully reopen at least, probably September will be good

The fall is the best time of year in my opinion

September or any time in the Fall

Based on current environments, I’ve two hypotheses:

2. Comp packages will get readjusted…
