Jamaica is getting a wave of new airlift for the upcoming winter tourist season, officials told Caribbean Journal. 

The destination has secured almost 80,000 new air seats for the period, in order to meet what officials called “increased demand from travelers.”

The vast majority of those seats are coming from the northeastern United States, with more than 64,000 additional seats, largely out of New York, New Jersey and Philadelphia. 

That includes United Airlines’ increased frequency from Newark to Montego Bay, along with American Airlines’ increase in service to Montego Bay from Philadelphia, among others.
