LATAM Is Adding More Nonstop Flights to Montego Bay, Jamaica

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - June 19, 2024 - 4:30 pm

Jamaica’s record-breaking tourism growth keeps heating up — and not just from traditional source markets like the United States.

That includes a growing number of travelers from still-untapped markets like Latin America.

And new nonstop flights on major carrier LATAM will certainly help that case.

Beginning in December, LATAM will be resuming nonstop flights between Lima, Peru and Montego Bay, with the new push set to begin on Dec. 1.

That will include a total of three nonstop flights per week, helping to open up Jamaica’s most popular destination with travelers not just from Peru but nearby Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Bolivia, among other markets.
