Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to JetBlue or Skyscanner with your selected flight dates. From there, you can check what OTAs have to offer, as they sell these tickets up to €20 cheaper:
First, you will fly from Europe to New York with JetBlue Airbus A321neo with a 3-3 configuration. Then you will connect to your flight to the Caribbean with JetBlue Airbus A320 family with a 3-3 configuration. Each of these planes feature on-demand TV for each passenger. Power outlets are available on the transatlantic flights.
Most European passport holders can spend up to 90 days visa-free in Trinidad & Tobago, Guyana, and Barbados.
Most Europeans need an electronic system for travel authorization (ESTA) to enter the USA for up to 90 days. This costs US$21 (~€19) and you should apply for it a couple of days before your trip, at the latest.
There are some cases where you cannot apply for an ESTA, e.g. if you’ve been to Cuba since 2021 or to Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, or North Korea since March 2011. In those cases, you’ll need to get a visa from a US embassy or consulate, which can take various weeks.
Search & Book
This deal does not have an expiration date, but a minimum stay of seven days or a Saturday overnight stay, and a maximum stay of twelve months apply. Departures are available between November 2024 and February 2025.
You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on jetBlue’s website, but you can find cheaper prices with Skyscanner. However, booking on OTAs has its downsides.
Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?
More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:
Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.
If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.
This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.
Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.
This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.
