The clock is ticking: One week in Jamaica for $619.
Pack or don’t pack? Don’t pack.
The deal, offered by CheapCaribbean.com, includes a room for six nights and airfare — though the downside is that its a Holiday Inn — a really nice Holiday Inn on the beach outside of Montego Bay. Sometimes, you may not want to let the name get you down.
The package includes a Hurricane Assurance program, meaning CheapCaribbean is guaranteeing that no easterly winds will ruin your vacation. Sounds nice for people who don’t know Hurricane season doesn’t even start until June. This is like 
offering a full refund if you hit all six numbers in Lotto or a Skylab guarantee, offering a full refund to your trip if a piece of Skylab falls on your hotel. (For you youngsters, look up Skylab here.)
The name aside, there are some potential pitfalls from with this particular trip, which makes us think twice. According to CheapCaribbean’s own website, the hotel fills up quickly and there’s not always a lot of space by the pool — and screaming kids do not make a good vacation.
However, there were some other deals on the site that cost a few dollars more
Five nights in a resort 40 minutes outside of Montego Bay on your way to Nigril, all inclusive resort, including airfare, $759.

This particular package looks considerably more appealing. You may have one less day at in sunny Jamaica but you won’t have to pay for food or drinks at the nine restaurants on the resort’s property.
Add the price of meals for six days at the first resort and you’re probably up at the second. Add the price of drinks — you’re definitely ahead.
Also, there were no restrictions on when you can go, whereas the first deal had most of March blacked out.
Now there were some packages that looked tempting but were already completely booked — meaning the few super discounted fares were gobbled up. It like those $19 airfare seats — they feel more legend than real.
Check out some of the other deals offered by CheapCaribbean deals here. If you live in Canada or some northern state, the appeal of the Winter Olympics loses a lot of its luster when its 18 degrees outside. Sun in the fun looks all that much better.
There are a number of packages to look over in this current sale, which ends Friday at midnight. No pressure.
