Canadians Going to Jamaica

To the Canadians in the Forum...where do you find the best airfare deals to Montego Bay or Kingston? Would appreciate any tips. Thanks!

Swoopair has the best price but you have to get to Hamilton Ont

West Jet can have some OK fares but plan on flying Tuesday or Wednesday that is where all the best fares are. Also Calgary has a direct flight to MoBay Saturdays Nov-April, so if you're flying from the west that makes the most sense. The Calgary flight gets into MoBay at about 5PM. Winnipeg has direct flights on Saturday but if you fly Tuesday or Wednesday you'll have to fly out of YYZ.

Air Transat and Sunwing fly into Montego Bay as well

Start with the “Hopper” app. For reference only this is a great app. There are no great differences between airlines. It all about loads and timing. Some have offers like WestJet Credit card 250$ credit with free bags. Do the math. Direct flights from secondary cities are a bonus. Air Canada has the resources to accommodate changes (aircraft, weather etc. and best frequent flyer rewards) vs. ie: Sunwing. Can you easily get to Hamilton to save 100$ on swoop? Great! Get alerts from TripAdvisor and other Travel sites for low fare sales. Will you add travel time and hassle to connect thru USA to save a few bucks? Book early and relax and daydream! Besides death and divorce, buying airline tickets to Mobay can be the most stressful event in your life!

Doing swoop next weekend. Saves 150. Drawback: 8:00 flight
