Sometimes we only post the good bits of the vacation; when we get to the splashy all-inclusive resort, the multiple trips to the pool bar, relaxing by the beach in the warm sunny weather, the food, you get what I mean.

It is almost good enough to help you forget the challenge it was to get there in the first place. Though it doesn’t happen all the time, travelling abroad can be a headache for connecting flights and organising transportation to and from the airport.
Some people avoid that at all costs and will only ever travel to countries with direct flights from their native land.
If you are one of these people and you are considering travelling to Jamaica, your country is on the list below.
Some flights are only in operation during peak season and are not year-round. Most flights are not daily so bear these in mind.
Yes, some states offer direct flights to Jamaica. These are:
Los Angeles, CA
Fort Lauderdale, FL
Miami, FL
Orlando, FL
Atlanta, GA
Chicago, IL
Boston, MA
Baltimore, MD
Detroit, MI
Minneapolis, MN
Charlotte, NC
Newark, NJ
New York, NY – JFK
Philadelphia, PA
Dallas, Austin, Houston, TX
Denver, CL
Washington, MD
Hartford, CT
St. Louis, MO
Most of these flights are direct flights to Montego Bay. Not all flights are operated daily.
Airlines that fly to Jamaica from other parts of the world
How long is a direct flight to Jamaica?
That depends on where you are travelling from. Direct flights can be as short as an hour to as long as 10 hours.
Within the Americas, flights take between 1-4 hours but European flights can last as long as 10 hours.
Which airport should you fly into?
The airport you fly into depends on the part of the island you will be vacationing in. For eastern parishes, like Portland and Kingston, it is best to arrive at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston.
Donald Sangster International Airport is much better for areas such as Montego Bay, Negril, and the south coast. It would be best to arrive here for vacations in Ocho Rios as well, however, the distance to Ocho Rios from either airport isn’t much different. The trip from Kingston will cost more, however, as you will have to use the toll.
What month is the cheapest to go to Jamaica?
September to November are the cheapest months to fly to Jamaica, just before the peak season. Hotels are generally more affordable during this time as well.
I hope you fall within the countries that have direct flights to Jamaica. If not, I hope you are not deterred from visiting our beautiful island. I promise that it is worth a connecting flight.
