So, you are about to book your flight for your Vacation to Ocho Rios Jamaica but is wondering which Airport you should fly into.
You are traveling with your children and wants a seamless experience in the airport; we recommend the Donald Sangster International Airport (MBJ) in Montego Bay for the best experience as a tourist to Jamaica.

Sangster’s International Airport is located in Montego Bay (MO BAY); this is where the majority of tourist arrives on the Island. The airport is centrally located for access to the south coast and the north coast of the Island.
Furthermore, the airport provides access to local/domestic flights to other regions, such as Port Antonio, Negril, Kingston and Ocho Rios. The Donald Sangster International Airport (MBJ) is also more tourist friendly in terms of its amenities than Kingston (KIN).
There are a wider variety of ground transportation options available – from car rental options to large buses and smaller cars. Depending on your preferences, you can choose one of the larger coaches for the best price, or you can arrange a private transfer in a luxurious car or minivan depending on the size of your party.
Travellers who use the Donald Sangster International Airport are also impressed with the vast array of duty-free shops in the airport. However, this airport is your best option if traveling to Ocho Rios Jamaica, due to factors such as more daily international flights, a more extensive array of ground transportation options and the proximity of the airport to Ocho Rios – it is just 90 minutes away.

The Norman International Airport in Kingston is the smaller of the two airports and travelers who use this airport, generally, have a good experience.
Some flights from Caribbean gateways such as the Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, and Panama tend to terminate at the Kingston airport, and if you are flying from one of these destinations, Kingston might be the best option.
You will also have no major issues finding transportation to your Ocho Rios destination, despite not having as many options as out of Montego Bay. One advantage of using the Kingston airport is that it is not as crowded as Montego Bay, which might result in a quicker turnaround time for travelers.
There are two advantages of using the Kingston Airpot:
1. It’s not as crowded as Montego Bay, which might result in a quicker turnaround time for travelers.
2. It’s located on the outskirt of Kingston, and provides easy access to the Capital as well as Port Antonio and Blue-Mountains.
Tinos Pen is the local/domestic airport that serves this region

Jamaica newest airport is the Ian Fleming International Airport, is located in the Ocho Rios resort area. This provides a convenient entry point to many of Jamaica’s villas and resorts.
Ian Fleming International Airport (previously Boscobel Aerodrome) (IATA: OCJ, ICAO: MKBS) is an international airport located in Boscobel, Saint Mary Parish, Jamaica, 10 km (6.2 mi) east of Ocho Rios, in northern Jamaica.
The airport provides service to the United States and to other Caribbean islands. It is named for Ian Fleming, the creator of the James Bond novels, whose Goldeneye estate is located in St Mary parish
The renaming of the airport was controversial, with some locals feeling that a prominent Jamaican should have been honoured in preference to the British Ian Fleming
