Cheap Flights to Miami

What are the best places to stay in Miami?

Miami Beach

Miami Beach is one of Florida’s most iconic neighbourhoods. Its beach access and an incredible selection of cafes, restaurants, and shops makes it one of the most popular areas to stay while holidaying on return flights to Miami. There’s beautiful Art Deco architecture around the neighbourhood, and you can see the best examples in the neighbourhood’s Historic Art Deco District. There are so many things to see and do around Miami Beach, so it’s the perfect introduction to the city for first-time visitors. Spend time on the 6.5-kilometre (4 mile) stretch of beach, visit Miami Beach Botanical Garden, and shop along Lincoln Road.

Little Havana

Miami has a vibrant Cuban culture, and the best area to take that in is in Little Havana. The neighbourhood is home to many of Miami’s top Cuban restaurants as well as museums and art galleries that focus on the history and culture of Cuba. Visit Futurama Gallery, spend time in Domino Park, walk along the Calle Ocho Walk of Fame, and try a classic Cuban sandwich. Have a look at hotels in Little Havana if you’re looking to be surrounded by an exciting Cuban American culture while visiting Florida with cheap flights to Miami.

Wynwood

Wynwood is one of Miami’s most artistic neighbourhoods, and it’s an excellent place to stay to enjoy the city’s eclectic side while holidaying on flights to Miami. It’s teeming with art galleries, outdoor art installations, and colourful street art. There are also plenty of cool restaurants, cafes, vintage shops, and craft breweries dotted around Wynwood. The neighbourhood isn’t frequented by many tourists, so it’s a great place for travellers looking for an authentic and local Miami experience.

What is the cost of visiting Miami?

Cheap flights to Miami aren’t the only thing you can book through Webjet: you can find great deals on hotels and rental cars too.

Rental cars are available in all shapes and sizes and start from about $25 NZD per day. Cars can be picked up from both of the city’s airports after you arrive on flights to Miami.

Having a car comes in handy, but there’s also plenty of public transport to help you get around in between return flights to Miami.

What should I pack for Miami?

Sunscreen and a plug adapter are two essentials for travellers who book airfare to Miami. The Florida sun is strong year-round, so a good sunscreen is important no matter what time of year you’ll be travelling on return flights to Miami. The United States uses plug types A and B, so make sure your adapter works with these.

Spending time on the beach is one of the most popular activities for visitors who book tickets to Miami. Pack a few swimsuits as well as sandals and sunglasses. Daytime temperatures are warm all year, so bring along hot-weather clothing like shorts, t-shirts and sleeveless tops, and sundresses. Winter evenings can cool down, so bring some jeans and a light jacket if you’ll be travelling on cheap flights to Miami between December and March. Miami locals love getting dressed up, particularly for nights out. Also note that some Miami nightclubs have dress codes that require women to wear heels. Lastly, bring along an umbrella if you’ll be travelling on flights to Miami in summer or early autumn as rain is most common during this time.
