UK-Jamaica flights without transiting the USA or Canada
I am a Nigerian citizen currently in the UK on a student visa with a residence permit valid for 3 years. I am planning a trip to Jamaica in a few days and do not have time to get transit visas for the USA or Canada. How do I find cheap tickets that do not include travel via the USA or Canada and that are to transit visa-free destinations?
Best Answer
Short notice (a few days) + high travel season + Not US/Canada = Expensive Ticket
Routing options in Europe are London Gatwick, Brussels, Cologne, Dusselsdorf, Frankfurt, Munich and Milano.
If you can get yourself to Cologne, Eurowings offers a round trip to Montego Bay for 400 Euros, 6/18-6/25.
