Vancouver flights into John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York

Metro Vancouverites who want to fly directly into JFK also have an affordable option with direct service through JetBlue, with return trips starting at $677.

Keep in mind, however, when you navigate off Google Flights to JetBlue's website, the price will appear significantly cheaper because it is priced in U.S. dollars. Google's price reflects the approximate Canadian conversion.

JetBlue operates flights between YVR and JFK daily; the flight departing from Vancouver is a red-eye option while the New York departure is in the evening. 

The airline has five different fare classes, as well as two memberships. For members, the rules for each fare class will change, allowing for more flexibility and inclusions than other guests. The fare classes are Blue Basic, Blue, Blue Plus, Blue Extra, and Mint.
