What you need to know before flying to Jamaica

in a nutshell

When is the cheapest time to fly to Jamaica?

The best way to get cheap flights to Jamaica is to travel during low season, spanning from mid-April to mid-October. Between May and November, Jamaica receives a lot of rain, and June to November is hurricane season. But you can expect warm weather whenever you go, as temperatures in Jamaica are pleasant all year round, ranging from 21 to 32 degrees Celsius. For the best deals on flights, it's best to visit Jamaica during August. Also, try to avoid flying around Easter or Christmas, when prices are likely to rise. Flying midweek on Tuesday or Wednesday can help reduce costs.

Booking your flight to Jamaica as far in advance as possible is the best is the best way to get a good deal. We'd recommend booking at least four months in advance to be in with a chance of finding cheap flights. You can try to find a last-minute bargain, but it's best to avoid waiting until last minute during peak times, like Christmas. If you know when you want to go, start searching early to find a bargain.

You can fly direct to Montego Bay from London Gatwick, but the majority of flights from the UK will have one or two stops – so it's likely that you'll have to change airlines at some point. Most flights will go to a city in the USA first, such as Atlanta, Miami or Orlando, before continuing on to Jamaica.
