Landing in Montego Bay

Landing in Montego Bay is wicked and it NEVER gets old! I just did my 9th trip and still….I always book my seat on the right side of the plane because that’s the side you can see the island on when coming in. I take pictures every single time I land there too. Like I said, it never gets old!

One of the best places to swim in Mobay is Dead End Beach. Why? Because its RIGHT BESIDE the airport and the planes fly super low over your head while you’re in the water. If you like planes like I do, its awesome!!

  1. Looking at the whitecaps always made me giddy when preparing to land. I also like seeing the cloud’s shadows on the water. Boy I sure do miss it!

  7. I have never landed there yet. As I watch this video (from MN where it is 16 degree right now), I am experiencing lots of different emotions. I got tears in my eyes as soon as I heard the flight attendant say, “Ladies and gentleman, welcome to Montego Bay”. I can only dream of experiencing this at this point. I feel like part of me is missing and I need to go there to find it. I know that may sound weird, but it’s the truth. But, I still plan on going in late April – maybe sooner – even though the link-up didnt happen. I want to go to dead end beach.

  9. Well, not officially…….

    I just went there because that was where my cruise ship stopped for the day. LOL

    I have never had a chance to go there and enjoy myself. When I went, I loved it there. But, I had my one year old with me, and I met up with my boyfriends family. I was sort of depending on them to find something for us to do for the day. Bless their hearts, they had no idea what to do. They are from Flankers, and barely had enough money to take the journey to Ochi. So, we just sat on the beach right by the cruise ship, took a short taxi ride to a local Jamaican restaurant called Mamas for breakfast (I felt so at home there), then went back to the beach. But, we didn’t go on the beach, we stayed right by the beach. Nobody had money to go to the beach, and I certainly didn’t have enough money to pay for everyone.

    Anyway, I am due for a trip, that’s for sure!

  10. See that’s why I don’t think I could ever do a cruise because what if you fell in love with a place and had to get back on the boat in a few hours?? UGH it would be sad.
