JetBlue Vacations Enters Partnership to Offer Travelers 'Great Weather Guarantee'
Worried about storm clouds literally raining on your parade? According to a Mar. 3, 2026 press release, you won't need to fret when traveling with JetBlue Vacations. That's because the company is partnering with the Jamaica Tourist Board and WeatherPromise to offer travelers a "Great Weather Guarantee" that will give visitors $500 back if it rains more than they were promised it would during their stay.
Of course, there are a few caveats to this collaboration. According to the statement it looks like you will only be able to take advantage of this offer if you book an eligible flight and hotel package through the company from Mar. 1 through May 31, 2026. The flights offered during these months will indicate what the expected rainfall will be during your stay, and if it exceeds that, your account will be credited $500.

Edmund Bartlett, Minister of Tourism, Jamaica in the statement. “The Great Weather Guarantee allows travelers to fully embrace everything our island has to offer with added confidence. We are proud to collaborate with JetBlue Vacations and WeatherPromise to help visitors create unforgettable memories across Jamaica’s unique landscapes and vibrant communities.”

Trips that are eligible for the "Great Weather Guarantee" will have offer automatically added to their trip. The company will be responsible for monitoring the weather during the stay, and if the rainfall amounts exceed the estimated threshold at the time of the booking, JetBlue Vacations will contact customers to see how they'd like to receive their $500 payout.
But, not all packages will have this offer. According to the press release, they will only be applied to:
Flights booked between Mar. 1 - May 26Travel dates that begin within 7 days of bookingTrips taken before Dec. 1, 2026Vacations lasting between 3-16 nightsRelated: This Historic City Was Named the Travelers' Choice for Solo Travel
How Much Does it Rain in Jamaica
If you're anything like me, your first question was likely "how much rain does Jamaica get?" According to Encyclopedia Britannica, Jamaica sees about 82 inches of rain per year. That rain falls seasonally, with most of it happening in October and May. However, June through September are known for their pop up thunderstorms. While those storms sound like they are typically short, these may be the days when you're most likely to see those rainy day payouts happen, since they will be less predictable than the rain that falls during the island's wet season.
