 Katzy Michael Katz Post Count: 37 Msg: #1 174 days ago, June 2nd 2009 | G'day guys | looks like we will be stopping by Jamaica on our next trip, we were going to skip it but we found $200 flights from new york to jamaica so its a good cheap way to get down in that area as from there will go to cuba then back in to mexico/central america! where are the best places to go? how long do you recommend we stay there for? we are thinking a week will be long enough Is it easy enough to get to cuba from there? if so by boat of plane? Is it as dangerous as some people say? any other help would be great cheers Yaime Yaimara Post Count: 5 Msg: #2 156 days ago, June 20th 2009 | Hey there Katzy, I want to welcome you to Jamaica.So lucky you are to find these cheap flights, $200 is really a deal. | I've been to both Jamaica and Cuba and these places are awesome to go to. Not to mention that they are near so you can spend precious time touring instead of being on a plane. Jamaica is my favorite. I'm sure you'll love it too. Don't worry about the dangers of going there. Tourists and travels are usually pretty safe. The real danger happens when you go out and venture on your own in violent inner cities in Jamaica. But the place has awesome beaches, mountains to hike and explore, great all inclusive hotels and lots of unique things to do. You'll find everything there, from great food , safaris, to great reggae music . For more info check out www.squidoo.com/jamaicavacations. You'll get all your questions answered here. I love Cuba too, especially Santiago de cuba. Cuba is pretty safer than Jamaica yet the locals may be a little less friendly to you. The stuff there is a little cheaper but you won't find greater beauty there than Jamaica. There are easy inexpensive Cuba travel packages that are easily available in Jamaica. I'd recommend you stay as long as you want! you'll find it hard to leave once you reach here. Wish you all the best!

Katzy Michael Katz Post Count: 37 Msg: #4 156 days ago, June 20th 2009 | thanks heaps Yaime for the information! | i dont suppose you know rough flight prices from cuba to jamaica, i cant seem to find any online, the only ones we have found are about $350 which we think are abit expensive considering its so close! thanks heaps cant wait :) Yaime Yaimara Post Count: 5 Msg: #5 154 days ago, June 22nd 2009 | Hey Katzy, Glad to know you found the information helpful... I called a couple of airlines in Jamaica and found them to be pretty more expensive than what you found online. To go to Cuba the cheapest rates are as follows: | Air Jamaica charges $427 per person on June 27 $408 per person on July 6-13 (other dates are more expensive) Cubana Airline charges $522 for all round trips they said that this charge is subjected to change but will never be as low as $350 These are the most popular airlines doing flights to Cuba from Jamaica. Like you, I thought these prices are a bit expensive considering that we are so close to Cuba. I'm not sure if it would be cheaper to fly from Cuba to Jamaica. If you have anymore questions I'd be happy to help you.
