Choosing a destination close to the airport can make a big difference to your holiday — especially if you’d rather spend less time on transfers and more time by the pool!
Whether you’re travelling with young children, arriving late, or simply want the smoothest possible start to your trip, staying within easy reach of the airport is often a smart move…

First things first, we would usually recommend booking an ATOL protected package holiday to this destination.
Reason being, you’ll often get better value for money compared to booking a flight-only.
Besides, the final price can be bundled together into one simple booking and include your flights, hotel, full baggage allowance and transfers both ways.
And if it is a holiday you’re after, check out these discounted TUI holidays to Jamaica.
We’ve curated this list of destinations as featured by them, and we’ve made our road distance calculations using the handy directions feature on Google Maps, whilst estimated driving times will of course depend on drop offs and traffic.
We hope you found this useful and enjoy your holiday!
