Montego Bay Flights

Among the siren songs of Jamaica's other popular destinations, Montego Bay comes out on top as the city with the highest concentration of tourists.

Montego Bay, perched on the north side of the island of Jamaica, is considered one of the "jewels of the Caribbean." It is simultaneously the tourist capital, second largest city, and one of two main cruise ship destinations. The large influx of tourists every year who all come for the crystal clear water, delicious Caribbean food, and Jamaican hospitality pay tribute to the magnetic power of this island paradise.

Being a tropical destination, it's not surprising that Montego Bay's main attractions are related to the beach. Out of the water, travelers indulge in ritualistic sun bathing along the sandy shores of Doctor's Cave Beach or lounging cabana-side with a frozen cocktail in hand. Above the water, wind conditions attract kite surfers, and below the water, snorkeling and scuba diving give you the opportunity to frolic with colorful fish among the coral.

Those looking for an easier transition into Jamaica society can saunter over to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, a tourist-heavy destination that nonetheless delights the party crowds and cruise enthusiasts.

Trying out new and exotic cuisines is part of the allure of travel, and Jamaica doesn't intend to disappoint. Blue Mountain Coffee, a wildly popular export, as well as being readily available throughout the country, is pleasantly mild and highly recommended. Also, don't forget to ask a local to show you how to properly eat sugar cane!

How to survive the flight to Montego Bay?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and discovering Montego Bay in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Montego Bay?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Montego Bay a piece of cake. Below are some top tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
