Cheap flights from London to Jamaica from £271

If you’re off on a Caribbean holiday and flying to Jamaica from London, you can choose from two departure airports and two arrival airports, depending on where you’re intending to stay on the island. In London the majority of routes are flown out of London Heathrow Airport (LHR), with a handful originating from London City Airport (LCY). Heathrow is about 15 miles from the centre of the city, most easily reachable using the Heathrow Express out of Paddington Station. London City Airport is a smaller, less busy airport, only about 8 miles from London centre. In Jamaica, you’ll either land at Montego Bay Sangster International Airport (MBJ) on the north coast of the island, or at Kingston Norman Manley Airport (KIN) on the opposite south-west end. Montego Bay Sangster is the busier of the two.

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to fly directly from London to Jamaica, as all routes require one or two stopovers. You do however have plenty of choice when it comes to airlines that fly the routes. The most common airline flying the route out of London City Airport is KLM, which offers a two-stop flight that lands at Montego Bay Sangster International. Stopovers en route are first at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) and then Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL) in the US, before making the final shorter hop to Montego Bay. Flying out of Heathrow you’ll have a lot more choice, with Virgin Atlantic and United Airlines offering the most flights. The former is a one-stop flight that first lands at New York John F Kennedy Airport (JFK) and then continues to Montego Bay Sangster. United Airlines also flies a one-stop route, the difference being that you’ll stop over at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR).

You have plenty of other stopover options besides the ones mentioned above. These all fly out of Heathrow Airport, and give you a choice of airlines that you can book through Cheapflights. KLM departs from Heathrow and makes a single stopover at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, before flying to Montego Bay Sangster. Or you can choose to fly with British Airways, which makes its stopover at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and then also lands at Montego Bay. Yet another option is to take an Air Canada flight out of Heathrow, which will stop over at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), before flying onwards to Kingston Norman Manley.

If you’re a British national you won’t need a visa to travel to Jamaica, but there is a 90-day limit on each stay. You can extend this period if you need to by applying to the Jamaican Passport, Immigration and Citizenship Agency. Your passport also only needs to be valid for as long as you intend to stay – you don’t need it to be valid for 3 months after entry as with many other countries, for instance.

The cheapest airline one-way is WestJet, with whom users have recently found tickets for as low as £417. However, be on the lookout for offers from Air Transat and Air Canada, as they are both options that can get you from London to Jamaica for a low price.
