We always fly out early and have a 1.5 hour drive to the airport. No direct flights. We have found, Park, Sleep and Fly the way to go. Stay close to the airport the night before, 14 days of free parking and shuttle to the airport. By time you calculate the cost of parking at the airport the night stay is very minimal. But I have to admit, I am usually up way before I need to be in anticipation of getting to Negril, but no fear of a traffic accident or weather causing us to miss our flight.
