Ten Places To Fly on a Whim
-
Boston
Lots of history, lots of clam chowder and lots of awesome people. Is there anyplace that you’d rather go to relax and hangout than a town that has the Celtics, the Red Sox and the Bruins all within the same city? Hell no. (Photo by Jared Wickerham/Getty Images)

Montreal
The Canadian destination that everybody is talking about. It’s a quirky little city with a cool art scene and a bunch of crazy little tech startups. If you’re going to hit one spot in North America where a large portion of the population are native French speakers, we totally suggest Montreal.
-
Chicago
Have you ever had a Chicago-style pizza? If not, then this is a suggestion that you need to heed: leave your office, go to the airport, get on a plane headed for Chicago and start stuffing your face. This stuff is so damn amazing that you’ll never want to leave
-
Cancun
Two words: The beach. It’s beautiful, it’s hot and Mexico is pretty inexpensive, so go take a break and catch some rays.
-
Toronto
This city is right on lake Ontario, hosts the mighty Toronto Maple Leaves and is absolutely gorgeous. It gets a little chilly in the winter (it is in Canada), but is definitely worth a visit when you have a bit of free time during the late springtime. (Photo by Noah Graham/NHLI via Getty Images)

Washington D.C.
America’s capitol is a pretty happening place. This town is full of young hotshots all fighting for some sort of political or business position which they’re completely unqualified for. So our suggestion is to pop a squat at a local bar and do some people-watching... Well, after you tour the White House that is.
-
Myrtle Beach
The heart of the south, a beautiful coastline and some awesome bars. If you don’t spend every single one of your spring breaks here, we definitely suggest hopping on a plane to come check it out. You won’t be sorry… Well, until your hangover kicks in.
-
Quebec City
Another cool Canadian city (no pun intended) to visit when you have the urge to escape, Quebec City has some pretty awesome events that you can jump into. There’s the Winter Carnival and the summer music. Hell, just come on over to get some of that sweet, sweet universal healthcare.
-
New York City
Step 1: Grab a hotdog from Gray’s Papaya. Step 2: Head over to Madison Square Garden. Step 3: Get a ticket for whatever is going on there that day. Step 4: Enjoy your getaway. (Photo by: PYMCA/UIG via Getty Images)

Ottawa
It’s the freaking capitol of Canada and we bet that you’ve never been there. So go on, treat yourself and get your colonial history on! (Photo by MICHEL COMTE/AFP/Getty Images)
