The experience

We rolled our suitcases out of Montego Bay Airport, and I’ll admit, I was bracing for chaos. Instead, a guy in a crisp shirt with my name on a card waved us over. He grinned and said, “Welcome home!” The air was thick and warm, smelled faintly of salt and jet fuel. Our driver, Andre, was already waiting by the car (air conditioning blasting, thank goodness), and within minutes we were gliding out past the crowds still haggling for taxis. Felt weirdly VIP for two tired travelers who’d just survived a red-eye.

The drive to Runaway Bay took about 75 minutes, but it didn’t drag. Andre pointed out little towns as we zipped along the coast: Falmouth’s old sugar warehouses, kids in bright uniforms darting across the road. He told us how mango season was late this year (I still think about those mangoes), and even recommended a jerk chicken spot we should try later. At one point he laughed when I tried to pronounce “Ocho Rios” properly. Let’s just say I need practice. The windows fogged up from the AC versus the sticky outside air. I pressed my hand against the glass just to feel how different it was.

No random stops at other hotels or waiting for anyone else’s bags. Just us, our tired feet propped up on our own row of seats. When we pulled into our resort driveway, Andre helped with our bags and wished us a good stay like he actually meant it. The whole thing felt easy in a way travel rarely does. Maybe that’s why I’m writing this down now instead of forgetting it.
