Fort Lauderdale and Kingston, Jamaica are now closer than ever with the launch of a new US Airways nonstop daily flight. This is US Airways’ fourth route to Jamaica.
“We are extremely excited to expand our partnership with US Airways,” said Paul Pennicook, director of tourism for Jamaica. “The daily flight between Fort Lauderdale and Kingston provides easy access for visitors and Jamaicans living in South Florida. We see this new US Airways route as yet another example of Jamaica’s continued strong growth,” Pennicook stated.
The Jamaica Tourist Board’s mandate has been to promote Jamaica as a preferred travel destination, identify new and emerging consumer groups, cultivate new relationships with travel partners, and disseminate timely and useful marketing information to its offices and travel partners worldwide.
The outbound US Airways flight will depart Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport daily at 11:15 a.m. and arrive at Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston at 12:56 p.m. Returning from Jamaica, the flight departs daily at 2:20 p.m. and arrives in Fort Lauderdale at 4 p.m.
US Airways also operates flights from Boston, Charlotte and Philadelphia to Montego Bay, Jamaica.
