  • Fare: the middle price of the economy round trips we found from New York on our latest check (half were cheaper, half dearer), for departures in the coming weeks.
  • Hotel night: our city guide's estimate, because we don't check Paris hotel prices ourselves yet.
  • Daily spend: food, local transport and sights per person, from our city guide, by travel style. The hotel isn't in it.
  • Total: fare × travellers + hotel night × nights × rooms + daily spend × travellers × days. Prices move, so treat it as a guide, not a quote.
