Delta's All-Inclusive Caribbean Packages: Aruba, Jamaica, and Bahamas Highlights
Below is a practical, up-to-date breakdown of what Delta Vacations currently offers for all-inclusive travel to Aruba, Jamaica and the Bahamas. I’ve organized it island-by-island with clear, actionable points: what's included, where you fly, who Delta partners with, booking perks and practical tips.
What a Delta Vacations all-inclusive package means:
What you get in one booking: round-trip airfare (on Delta or an eligible codeshare partner), hotel stay, and optional add-ons such as transfers, car rental, tours and travel protection. Delta markets “all-in-one” packages to Caribbean destinations including Aruba, Jamaica and the Bahamas.
Resort partners: Delta lists major resort partners (examples: Sandals/Beaches, RIU, Marriott/Delta Hotels and other large chains), so many well-known all-inclusive properties are bookable through Delta Vacations. That means you can often bundle a Sandals or RIU stay with Delta flights in one reservation.
Member benefits & protections: SkyMiles members earn miles (and packages can count toward Medallion Qualification Dollars depending on package value). Delta Vacations also advertises flexible change policies and travel protection options that can be added at booking.
Aruba highlights and practical points
Airports & flights: Most Delta Vacations Aruba packages route to Queen Beatrix International Airport (AUA) in Oranjestad. Delta and partners operate scheduled flights to Aruba from major U.S. gateways in peak and shoulder seasons; Delta bundles those flights into its packages.
Resort types available via Delta: Delta shows both family-friendly and adults-only all-inclusive options for Aruba (and partners include major hotel groups). If you want an adults-only or family package, use Delta’s “vacation type” filters (All-Inclusive / Adults-Only / Family).
Typical inclusions at Aruba resorts: all-inclusive packages commonly include daily meals, selected drinks, on-site activities (snorkel trips, non-motorized water sports), and sometimes transfers confirm the property page for exact inclusions before booking. Delta’s Aruba pages list resorts and categories so you can compare inclusions.
Booking tip: Aruba is popular year-round; search Delta Vacations for shoulder-season dates to find better package pricing and greater resort availability. Use the package filters to add transfers or excursions if you want door-to-door service.
Jamaica highlights and practical points
Airports & arrival points: Delta Vacations lists package options to Montego Bay, Negril, Ocho Rios and Kingston Montego Bay (MBJ) is the most common airport for all-inclusive beach resorts. Packages include the Delta or partner flights to the chosen arrival airport.
Resort selection & experience types: Jamaica’s inventory through Delta covers a wide range: family resorts with kids’ clubs and waterslides, couples-only properties, and large all-inclusives with multiple restaurants and entertainment. Use Delta’s resort filters to compare family vs adults-only options.
On-island activities often available through packages: shore excursions, on-property entertainment, guided tours (Dunn’s River Falls, river rafting in Ocho Rios), watersports and optional transfers. If a specific excursion is important, add it at booking to lock availability.
Practical note: Jamaica resorts are concentrated near a few airports to confirm your transfer time when booking (transfer length can vary widely between Negril, Montego Bay and Ocho Rios). Delta’s package pages typically list transfer options and estimated travel times.
Bahamas highlights and practical points
Airports & islands covered: Delta Vacations offers packages to The Bahamas (Nassau/Paradise Island is the primary hub). Depending on the resort, packages can include connections or ferry transfers to out-island properties.
All-inclusive resort types: The Bahamas features both adults-only luxury all-inclusives (for example, Sandals properties in Nassau) and family resorts (Beaches). Delta’s partners include Sandals/Beaches which are bookable through Delta Vacations pages for the region.
Typical inclusions & extras: look for unlimited meals/house drinks, scheduled water activities, and sometimes free basic PADI scuba sessions at partners like Beaches/Sandals but the exact package inclusions depend on the hotel brand and level of room/resort. Confirm the resort’s “what’s included” list on the Delta Vacations resort page.
Booking perks, cost control & smart tips (applies to all three islands)
Earning SkyMiles & MQDs: booking Delta Vacations packages can earn flight miles and may contribute to Medallion Qualification Dollars depending on eligible package components useful if you chase status. Always add your SkyMiles number when you book.
Travel protection and flexible changes: Delta promotes travel protection add-ons and flexible change policies for packages add travel protection at checkout if you want trip cancellation/interruption coverage. Read the terms (what’s refundable and what’s not) closely.
Compare resort pages vs. package price: the Delta package price often bundles airfare + hotel + transfers; compare the package total to booking flight + hotel separately to confirm value (sometimes the package has promotions or bonus miles). Promotional discounts and partner coupon/bonus offers run periodically.
Add-ons and final-mile details: when you book, double-check baggage allowances on the included flights, arrival transfer pickup points, resort check-in time and any mandatory resort fees or local taxes these can affect the total trip cost at arrival. Delta Vacations pages and the resort confirmation should list these items.
Quick checklist before you book (point-form)
Confirm airport (AUA/MBJ/NAS) and estimated transfer time.
Verify the exact inclusions for your chosen resort (meals, drinks, activities, transfers).
Add SkyMiles number to earn miles/bonus offers and check MQD treatment.
Consider travel protection and flexible cancellation options.
Compare package total vs. separate flight + hotel pricing for value.
