I usually take US Airways with an layover in Charlotte, NC or AirJamaica. I haven't any had any major problems with either carriers although I love AirJamaica...only a 3 hour flight.

I LOVE non-stop flights. You save soooo much time that way and it's especially nice on the way back going through customs. I wish Air JA flew out of Detroit. Northwest is the only airline that sometimes has non-stop flights from Detroit to JA and even if they're more money, it's worth it to me :yes:

I feel the same way. I rather pay more then to take a connecting flight no matter where I go.

Hi Tricia

I am sure what your SO is going through is not an easy process. I have lived in the US on and off for 12 years (been back permanently for 5) and there are many times that I wished I could just go back home. It's not an easy transition, but I hope that he sticks it out. It's only been a few months and I know that it is probably the hardest because he may not yet be working and as you stated there is not a strong JA contingent in your area. Last week, I began thinking a lot about how my SO would adjust to life here and I began worrying about how our relationship may be affected. I talked it over with him and my sister and by the grace of God, I found this post on VJ http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=83280. I totally appreciated what she had to say, and how they have learned to cope with the changes.

I know that my SO's transition may be a little easier as there is a strong Jamaican presence in South Florida; with the restaurants, many events, such as the Jerk Festival (which is the weekend of our interview) and such. I will be praying for you both :) .
