Mandarin Oriental invites family travelers to experience Boston and New York City with a one-of-a-kind journey connecting the two cities during the year of the United States’ 250th anniversary.

 

Harbour to Harbour is a curated, two-city excursion showcasing the distinct characteristics of these historic destinations to travelers. From Boston’s cultural ties to New York’s vibrant energy, the experience lets travelers discover each city for themselves.

 

Through Oct. 15, travelers can enjoy accommodations at either hotel, enjoy a $100 dining credit at each, and 10 percent savings on private charter flights between New York and Boston thanks to the hotel’s partnership with Tradewind Aviation.

 

Enjoy private terminals, an expedited boarding process and personalized service, all while avoiding the nuisances of commercial travel. Recommended airports for the experience include Laurence G. Hanscom Field in Bedford, Massachusetts, approximately 30 minutes from Mandarin Oriental, Boston; and Teterboro Airport in Bergen County, New Jersey, approximately 35 minutes from Mandarin Oriental, New York.

 

“Harbour to Harbour reflects our commitment to creating distinctive experiences that extend beyond our hotels. Together with Tradewind Aviation, we’ve created a seamless way for guests to discover the unique character of both Boston and New York in a single journey,” said Marcel Thomas, general manager, Mandarin Oriental, New York, and area vice president, Operations.

 

Rates for the Harbour to Harbour experience begin at $7,300 and vary based on aircraft selection and passenger requirements.
