About This Route

Aruba delivers constant sunshine, calm turquoise water, and powder-white beaches outside the hurricane belt. That dependable weather makes it a year-round NYC favorite.

Aruba is a slightly longer Caribbean run from New York, with nonstops of about five hours from both JFK and Newark. JetBlue, Delta, United and American serve the island regularly. For better fares, target January, April and May, avoiding the busiest holiday stretches, though Aruba's location outside the hurricane belt keeps its weather dependable year-round. US visitors need a valid passport, and the island runs on Atlantic Time, so the shift from New York is minimal. Queen Beatrix Airport also offers US preclearance for the trip home. Comparing JFK and EWR fares can uncover a better deal on this route.

Pro tip: Book 3-6 weeks in advance for the best deals. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are typically the cheapest days to fly on this route. Avoid traveling during peak periods like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring break for lower fares.
