    Hello everyone!

    I just found out about this website and I hope it will be very helpful for planning future nonrev trips.
    As a KLM employee I will also try to contribute where I can (I have access to loadfactors).

    Now my question, can anyone tell me how full flights usually are between London and Jamaica? I am planning a trip in the first week of July and trying to figure out the best way to get there.

    My options are:
    Thu Jul 03 - BA2263 LGW - KIN
    Fri Jul 04 - VS069 LGW - KIN
    Sat Jul 05 - BA2263 LGW - KIN
    Sat Jul 05 - VS065 LGW - MBJ

    Any help would be highly appreciated!

    Welcome aboard Sundance! We look forward to your participation.

    You may want to repost your dates/flights in the "Checking Loads" forum closer to flight time.

    OK Kid!!,
    First problem I see is that BA only fly Mon, Wed and Fri and you want to fly BA on Thur and Sat which could prove difficult
    However if you wanted to fly BA 2263 on 2nd or 4th Jul you would not have a problem > 40 empty seats each at the moment but that can obviously change nearer the date.

    Thanks for the input!

    A family memember was married on the beach, a great 5 days. Every room had a bottle of rum, gin, vodka and brandy and beer and pop. When you ran out they&#39;d bring more. This is an All Incluisve Resort, bar and food all around. Beautiful beach. Top-less and further down an all nude/naked resort...interesting.
    ATL to MBJ I was up front, wife bulkhead coach. But, the FA&#39;s took care of her. After landing in MBJ, the FA&#39;s told me next time she should be up front, but my excuse is always...I have longer legs.
    On the MBJ/ATL flight one of the same FA&#39;s remembered us..this time we both got up front..so she was happy.
    It&#39;s about a 75 min ride from MBJ to Negril, not bad. They&#39;ll stop to pick up beer etc.
    No more jet trips until Fall...thinking DTW/AMS since NW has 4-5 flights a day....
