American Airlines Just Added a New Weekly Flight to Saint Lucia
Centuries-old cacao farms. Stunning hiking trails. Drive-through volcanoes. World-class rum. Maybe you know the Pitons or the three-walled hotels, but Saint Lucia is so much more than that — it’s a deep, layered destination that begs to be explored.
And Saint Lucia just got a major new route from American Airlines, which is now flying once each week from New York’s John F Kennedy International Airport on Saturdays.
The new route, which kicked off earlier this month, is running on American’s Boeing 737 aircraft.
So what about cost?
In February you can book the route for about $361 roundtrip in economy, according to AA.com.
Where to stay? If you want an authentic, family-owned resort option, we always love staying at the Bay Gardens Resorts portfolio in northern Saint Lucia, whether at the toes-in-the-sand Bay Gardens Beach Resort (an extremely good value at $200 per night right now) or the lovely boutique Water’s Edge villas.
