Easier to get to from the States than most any other tropical destination, the Caribbean is just a hop away from Florida. Flights to Aruba, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and all the many main islands of this region leave from airports all over the U.S., especially from the east coast, and out of many international airports as well. A majority of the cheaper flights fly into Jamaica, but as Aruba is also heavily visited there are many Aruba flight deals as well so don't let the thought of airfare to Aruba get in the way of your plans. There are many ways to create a reasonably priced vacation.

Flights to Aruba land in Oranjestad at Reina Beatrix International Airport, one of the busiest airports in the Caribbean. To get between the airport and your hotel, there are many transportation options including taxis, rental cars, or the local bus, which has stops just outside the airport.

Many airliners operate flights to Aruba, including American Airlines, US Airways, United, KLM, Air Canada, and even some budget airlines such as jetBlue. JetBlue offers great Aruba flight deals out of JFK International Airport in New York City that are always worth checking. Routing through New York to catch these flights may save you money depending on your point of origin. The Aruba airport has direct flights from many U.S. cities, as well as Canada, Europe, South America, and other Caribbean Islands mainly Curacao and Bonaire. Flying direct from Miami, Florida, the Southern-most U.S. departure point, flight time is about two hours forty-five minutes.

Since the weather in Aruba is nice and about the same all year long, also because there is no hurricane season here, high and low seasons reflect the climates of other countries rather than Aruba. Airfare to Aruba is thus at a peak from mid-December until mid-April when it's cold and dreary elsewhere. Aruba flight deals and slashed hotel prices are common during the traditional summer months of May to August. However, even in the summer the island is still well populated so don't expect to be the only one there.

Buying your tickets in the summer slower season is a good way to get good hotel prices and Aruba flight deals, but as with any travel plans, searching around online can frequently lead to even deeper discounts on your airfare to Aruba. Check last minute deals at online travel sites or look into vacation packages for hotel deals combined with cheap flights to Aruba.

With welcoming white sand beaches, and things to do ranging from golf to tours to deep-sea fishing, Aruba is a great vacation spot and cheap Aruba flights make it affordable as well.
