What time of day is cheapest to fly to New Brunswick?

New Brunswick is a microcosm of the country so if you do not have the time to see all of Canada, this is a good start. From huge swathes of preserved wilderness that stretch across much of New Brunswick’s interior to lengthy coastlines, water plays a big part in the province’s life – be it in the form of rivers, lakes or the sea.
One of the four founding provinces of Canada, New Brunswick joined Confederation in 1867 and is named after Braunschweig, a city in the north of Germany that is the ancestral home of King George III. The province is officially bilingual though the bulk of the local population is English with a sizeable French minority of about 30 per cent.
Despite its remote feel, New Brunswick was once the destination of choice among wealthy US travelers who saw the area as a perfect getaway for fishing and hunting vacations. The very thing that was once such a strong attraction is still there and visitors come to New Brunswick for the untouched wilderness that is just waiting to be experienced and explored.
New Brunswick climate
New Brunswick features a continental climate though this is tempered along coastal areas where the summers are cooler and winters tend to be warmer. The highest average temperature can be enjoyed in July, which ranges from 72 degrees F on the coast to 77 or so inland. Winter makes its presence most felt in January when the coastal areas dip to 20 degrees though this is made to seem positively balmy in the interior where the mercury can fall as low as -22 F.
Best Time to Fly to New Brunswick
Peak Season:
The most popular time to visit New Brunswick is undoubtedly during the summer months of June to August when the weather is warm, allowing visitors to take in much of the local scenery in comfort while enjoying many of the outdoor pastimes on offer here, such as hiking, fishing, swimming or sightseeing. This is also the time when the bulk of the area’s festivals take place. However, winter activities such as skiing and snowboarding, snowmobiling as well as snow-shoeing do not come into their own until December.
Low Season:
While the onset of cold weather attracts winter-sport enthusiasts to ski resorts in the inland areas where the temperatures are lowest, many of New Brunswick’s cities experience a drop in visitor numbers, particularly along coastal areas. Early spring can be wet, but as the summer approaches the weather clears and visitors arriving in New Brunswick at this time can often find attractive hotel rates ahead of the onset of high season.
