The only thing I’m thinking of is ATI Weekend which is the first wneeked in AUGUST. Every single hotel in Negril from the most expensive 5 star to the roach motels are completely full of high school and university students as well as tourists and other Jamaicans partying non stop! I think it starts on Independence day which is august 6th and goes till the 8th i think. I know its DEFINITELY that wneeked just not sure if its friday to sunday or thursday to sunday.I don’t think there’s a special week in June at all.

Comment on One Option to Avoid High International Roaming Charges by Gary

Update from OneSim Card: OneSim VoIP – Make And Receive Calls Over Wi-Fi For As Little As 1c/min! OneSim VoIP provides OneSimCard customers with an even less expensive way to make and receive international calls on their OneSimCard-enabled mobile phones. To use OneSim VoIP, users must have a sufficient Wi-Fi connection, Android 2.0 or higher phone and a VoIP-enabled Personal Extra Number (PEN) activated with OneSimCard.com. When making an outgoing call, a OneSimCard user can select the way the call will be made – either through the OneSimCard international SIM card or our Wi-Fi VoIP network. Calls made over the Wi-Fi VoIP network are generally much lower cost than OneSimCard’s standard international roaming rates. Incoming calls made to the PEN will be received through low-cost VoIP if the OneSimCard phone and OneSim VoIP app are registered on a sufficient Wi-Fi network. Otherwise, the call will be sent the usual way to the phone through the international SIM card. The OneSim VoIP app will work only if the OneSimCard international SIM card is installed in the phone. Initial settings for the app are available in the “My SIM Cards” menu of the OneSimCard.com online account. More information is available here, and remember to use coupon code for extra discount: ISLNDTRV10 Important: Connection quality of the calls made using OneSim VoIP option over Wi-Fi will only be as good as the quality of the Wi-Fi connection. Please be advised that in most cases this kind of connection quality is inferior to the connection quality made through the OneSimCard international SIM card roaming network. OneSim VoIP will be fully functional and all rates will be posted online within the next few days.

2. Home or destination uninhabitable from natural disaster
3. Permanent transfer of employment
4. Being hijacked, quarantined or called to jury duty
5. A Terrorist Incident
6. Concierge and Business Assistance Services

CLASSIC PLAN now allows for travelers 80+ to qualify for Pre-Existing Waiver when purchasing within 21 days of deposit. Benefits are limited to $10,000 trip cost and trip length of 30 days.

NEW – CLASSIC PLUS PLAN is the same as the Classic Plan except, the Cancel For Any Reason Benefit is included and reflected in the rates.
