Creator's Key Takeaways

it was a nice easy drive down to Heathrow it was a quick stop at Beaconsfield Services one of our favorites and then we went to our parking

the whole boarding process was actually pretty quick one thing we will say is having never flown with United before everyone seemed to have just ridiculous amounts of hand luggage

this meal was was so good we really enjoyed it I had New York strip sirloin yeah and it was massive yeah it just melted in your mouth

we went in the entrance and were Amazed by how beautiful the station is yeah it was amazing it was everything I'd seen in Gossip Girl

Creator's Tips & Advice

Download Lyft before traveling as it was cheaper than Uber in NYC.
Allow plenty of time for traffic when driving to Heathrow.
Consider a City Pass for multiple attractions to save money.

YouTube Video Description

We visited New York City in August 2023, this is the first video in our series, where we will be taking you along on the trip with us. It was our first time in the Big Apple, and so we spent time enjoying as many of the main tourist attractions as we could. In this first video we talk about our journey, which includes our experiences at Heathrow airport and our flight with United Airlines into Newark Liberty Airport. We give a brief overview of what we thought of our room in the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel New York Times Square West. We also managed to enjoy a bit of the city once we arrived with visits to Times Square and Grand Central. We finished our night with a meal at Morton's The Steakhouse.
