Embark on Direct Flights to These 3 Hidden Caribbean Gems

A Caribbean summer getaway is a classic choice, but with everyone flocking to these tropical destinations, what you hoped would be a peaceful vacation can quickly become crowded and hectic. If you still want to enjoy a serene Caribbean beach without the chaos, consider visiting some of the lesser-known islands in the region. Recently, three of these hidden gems have become more accessible.
Due to increasing demand, major airlines like American Airlines, Delta, and JetBlue are adding more flights to these once-overlooked destinations, making it easier and more affordable to reach them. If you’ve been dreaming of visiting St. Lucia, St. Kitts, or St. Martin, now is the perfect time to book your trip.
**Saint Lucia**
St. Lucia is often described as a slice of paradise, and it was recently named one of the Caribbean’s safest destinations. Now is an ideal time to visit, as American Airlines and JetBlue have expanded their flight schedules to the island, adding 40,000 new seats for U.S. travelers this summer. Most flights depart from New York, Boston, or Miami, offering flexibility in planning your trip. With round-trip tickets starting at just over $300, you can explore the iconic Pitons, Anse Mamin Beach, and the Diamond Botanical Gardens. Don’t forget your camera to capture the stunning views.
**Saint Kitts**
Saint Kitts, the larger island in the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis, offers tranquility without being dull. You can relax on the pristine sands of South Friars Bay, hike Mount Liamuiga, explore Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park, enjoy the St. Kitts Music Festival, and ride the Scenic Railway. American Airlines is launching two nonstop flights to St. Kitts from New York and Charlotte this summer, with service running through August 31st. If you prefer to wait, Delta will also introduce new flights to the island in December.
**Saint Martin**
For a culturally rich experience, St. Martin is an excellent choice. This French side of the island offers a blend of Caribbean relaxation and European charm. Enjoy exquisite cuisine, beautiful beaches like Orient Bay and Grand Case, and numerous duty-free shops in Marigot, the capital. American Airlines is starting a new weekly flight from New York to St. Martin on December 7th, giving you plenty of time to plan your dream Caribbean getaway.
