Palermo is the perfect jumping-off point for a scenic drive along the island’s southern and eastern coasts, home to historic sites like the Valley of the Temples Archaeological Park. Ride a cable car to the summit of Mt. Etna or sip on volcanic wines at Benanti Winery. Retreat to one of many luxurious hotels scattered across the island, like Villa Igiea, housed in a grandiose 19th-century palazzo in Palermo, or ADLER Spa Resort Sicilia, a sustainable wellness property adjacent to the Torre Salsa Nature Reserve. The San Domenico Palace, a Four Seasons Hotel, is adding to its impressive collection of opulent suites, manicured gardens, and 14th-century cloisters, with a new luxury spa set to open in 2024.
JetBlue’s New Central America and Caribbean Routes
JetBlue’s recent entry into The Bahamas, St. Kitts and Nevis, and Belize underscores the airline’s latest move to expand its presence in Latin America and the Caribbean, where it now operates in 27 countries.
From the West Coast to The Bahamas
With four weekly flights from LAX and three weekly flights from Seattle to Nassau, the thrill of Paradise Island, the pink sands of Harbour Island, and Exuma’s famous swimming pigs are now just a short hop for travelers from the West Coast.
From New York JFK to St. Kitts
In November, JetBlue began flying from New York JFK to St. Kitts, bringing a new choice to a route with limited competition today. The dual-island nation of St. Kitts and Nevis boasts dramatic volcanic peaks, bountiful beaches, and a wealth of five-star resorts, including the Park Hyatt St. Kitts Christophe Harbour, Sunset Reef St. Kitts, and the Four Seasons Resort Nevis.
From New York JFK to Belize
Whether it’s exploring the world’s second-largest barrier reef, visiting ancient Mayan sites, or zip-lining through lush jungles, Belize is now one step closer for travelers from New York. On December 6, the airline launched a new year-round service, three times per week, from New York-JFK to Belize City. No stranger to top-notch resorts like Ka’ana Resort, Mahogany Bay Resort & Beach Club, and Alaia Belize, an ultra-luxurious development is on the horizon. The Six Senses Belize recently broke ground and is slated to open in 2025.
