Car Hire Montego Bay Airport

Montego Bay Airport Mini Guide

Serving both international and domestic passengers is Montego Bay Airport which is more commonly known as Sangster Airport. In 2018 the airport handled over 4 million passengers via its two main terminals.

One terminal is used for domestic arrivals and departures and the other for those arriving and departing for international destinations. Main airlines that provided flights for the airport include Air Canada, Air Berlin, American Airlines, British Airlines and Air Jamaica. In addition to handling commercial passenger flights the airport also has cargo airlines for those who need it such as FedEx Express and Air Jamaica Cargo.

Passengers can easily collect their hire car from Montego Bay Airport from outside the airport building at the pick up and drop off points on the ground floor. Around the airport passengers will find many amenities. The duty free areas within the departure terminals contain many shops such as Nickelodeon, Extra Extra which sells souvenirs, The Coffee Mill, The Perfume Shops and Buccaneer Duty Free selling wine and liquor.

For those in need of refreshments you can find many outlets. Popular choices include Island Grill where passengers can sample Jamaican cuisines. Jamaica Bobsled is an interesting restaurant selling national foods in the themed establishment which as the names suggests contains Bobsled merchandise.

Amenities include a smoking lounge in the upper level of departures, currency exchange in departure and ground transport areas and customer services in the public arrivals area and the departure lounges.

If you’ve hired a car for your Jamaican holiday then a great day out is to visit the Dunn’s River Falls at Ochos Rios. It’s a couple of hours drive from Montego Bay but the journey takes you through lush countryside and there are plenty of places to stop off at for a refreshing drink.

At the falls, four rivers meet and form a series of waterfalls that are even more magical as they tumble through the rainforest. Some people just sit and watch whilst other adventurous types climb the falls for a very wet but refreshing thrill.
