Thanks Sue Probably the most unsettled weather will be through the Mediterranean Sea after which time the wind will be behind you with no tropical disturbences to worry you. If you can read the pressure charts, here's one that will update 4 times a day... http://old.wetterzentrale.de/pics/avnpanel1.html It's been some years since I've stayed in Jamaica, but I think there was an exit fee. Googling comes up with "airport departure tax of US$35 is payable when departing Jamaica." I hope this helps. Keith (Southend) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookedoncruising! Posted October 22, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Just read some older posts on the forum and it says you only pay departure tax if you have stayed in a hotel. If only cruising it is classed as in transit,so nothing to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbiewaves Posted October 24, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2018 We flew into and out of Jamaica on a cruise in Dec 2016 and there was no departure tax for cruise passengers. As said maybe if you cruise then stay in Jamaica it is payable. Tourists cant blag it as cruise passengers normally just arrive with hand luggage as their cases have already gone through.
