the airport the worst for ex-change rates..go to a bank or cambio..and stat away from the hi-lo guys in the parking lot..they're very slight of the hand..lets say... (even if they give best rates-unless you know the con-game ...dont do) atm is the best way go..travelers cheques are becoming like the dinosaurs.....

ATMs worked well for us, but we never had them run out of money, no electricity, bank shutoff card, etc. This time I plan on bringing a fair amount more of USD (probably a day or two worth for some of you) and changing it all in Negril to JMD. I looked back at what we were charged to use the ATM, it was $3 for the local bank and $2.50 for my own bank plus 3%. That's $11.50 to pull out $200.
