American to Start Nonstop Chicago-Montego Bay Flights

American Airlines will begin nonstop flights from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport to Montego Bay, Jamaica, on Jan. 31, 2009. Though American has long served Montego Bay, it will be the airline’s first-ever nonstop flight there from Chicago.

The new service is part of an expansion of American Airlines flights to Montego Bay that will begin in early November. On Nov. 2, American will increase its schedule between Miami and Montego Bay from two daily nonstop flights to three.

On the same date, American will also increase its service between Dallas/Fort Worth and Montego Bay from one weekly flight to five weekly, and then to daily service in mid-December.

American also serves Montego Bay from New York JFK. In addition, American operates service to Kingston, Jamaica, with flights from both Miami and Fort Lauderdale. The Fort Lauderdale-Kingston service began earlier this year.
