Good morning. Winter blues hitting hard? Alaska Airlines just dropped a killer nonstop deal that's perfect for shaking off the cold: roundtrip flights between New York and San Diego for only $191 (that's about $95 each wayv- insane for a coast-to-coast nonstop!).

This works both directions—NYC to sunny San Diego, or reverse if you're West Coast-based and craving a NYC fix. We're talking direct flights, no layovers, just you, a good playlist, and ~6 hours later... palm trees (or skyscrapers).

Key details: Airline:

Alaska Airlines (nonstop comfort—free movies, solid legroom, and their famous snacks)

Price:

$191 roundtrip (taxes/fees included in most quotes—double-check when booking) Travel window: January through March 2026 (prime shoulder season—fewer crowds, milder weather)

Departure city: New York (likely EWR Newark or JFK- Alaska flies both)

Arrival city: San Diego (SAN)

Pro tip: If you're flexible, mid-week flights (Tues/Wed) often stay cheapest. Book directly with Alaska to earn miles and avoid change fees where possible.
