Quick summary

Update: Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here.

If you haven't decided where to go for spring break, it's time to bump Jamaica up a few spots on your list. Three airlines have a sale on fares to Montego Bay that are much cheaper than usual. The flights also include several nonstops making this deal even more appealing.

JetBlue tickets are in the main cabin, which gives you a free carry-on bag and seat assignment. American and Delta fares are for basic economy. We found the best prices and availability for travel in February and March.

A tip of the hat to our pals at Thrifty Traveler for telling us about this great deal, which they told their premium subscribers about. Subscriptions to their premium service are $7.99 a month or $49.99 a year. The membership fee can easily pay for itself since you'll get notified about cheap flights, award flight sales and business-class deals.

Nonmembers can find sale prices by using Google Flights to search for routes and dates.

I always enjoy spotlighting deals to tropical destinations from cities that go through some especially frigid winters, and Minneapolis (MSP) fits that description perfectly. Delta has nonstop basic economy fares to Jamaica marked down to $366 in February.

Philadelphia (PHL) is another cold-weather city with some killer prices available. American has basic economy fares in February and March marked down drastically. You can fly nonstop to Montego Bay in February for $304, a big discount from typical prices.

We also found fares under $300 for flights with a layover. So if you don't mind a slightly longer trip, that's another option.

One of the best deals we found was Denver (DEN) to Jamaica in March for just $319. That's a huge savings from normal ticket prices. We found a lot of availability at this price in March, but don't wait too long. This is a great price for this route.
