£286+ Cheap flights to Connecticut

Peak Season:Summer is high season for most attractions when visitors have the most options, and the most crowds, especially along the shore. July and August, and weekends from May to Columbus Day are packed with tourists in Mystic and the Southeastern coast. Along with the crowds, attractions and restaurants are packed and Connecticut flights and rooms need to be booked months in advance. Off Season:Many attractions close in the winter, but autumn and spring are excellent times to visit — autumn for the changing leaves and spring for the gardens and town greens in bloom. Several of the attractions that close in the winter reopen in April or May.
