How we know

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: the middle nightly price of the Miami hotels we check three times a week (see our hotel price index).
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.

Each day's highlights in order. Want more days or a different pace? The planner at the end reshapes it around you.
