JetBlue Is Flying From New York to Nassau for $311, With Nonstop Flights, July Dates, and Beach Weather

Looking for a summer escape to The Bahamas? This is the deal to book.

Caribbean Journal’s Flight Watcher just found round-trip flights from New York to Nassau for just $311 on JetBlue, according to a search on Google Flights.

The fare is available for travel departing July 6 and returning July 10, a perfect long-weekend-plus window for a midsummer Bahamas getaway.

That’s a standout price for nonstop summer travel between New York and Nassau, a route that regularly commands significantly higher fares in peak season.

The flights operate nonstop from John F. Kennedy International Airport to Nassau’s Lynden Pindling International Airport, with a flight time of around three hours — meaning you can leave Manhattan in the morning and be on the sand by early afternoon.

As always with Flight Watcher deals, fares can change quickly, so if the dates work, it’s best to book sooner rather than later.

So where should you stay?

For a dose of old-school Bahamian glamour, there’s the legendary Graycliff Hotel, the historic mansion-turned-luxury-hotel in the heart of downtown Nassau. It’s home to one of the world’s great wine cellars, a five-star restaurant and its own hand-rolled cigar operation — a singular property that feels like a living piece of Bahamian history.

For something on the beach, book Goldwynn Resort & Residences, the chic residential-style resort on the sands of Goodman’s Bay at the edge of Cable Beach. It’s one of Nassau’s buzziest recent openings, with understated luxury suites, an outstanding beachfront restaurant and a quietly sophisticated vibe that’s made it a favorite of in-the-know travelers.

In other words: a $311 flight, a pair of terrific hotels and some of the prettiest beaches in the region. Summer in Nassau is calling.
