First time on starlux. I was pleasantly surprised. Exceeded my expectations.

From the conspicuous New York skyline to the colonial gems of Cuba and all the way down to the lush rainforests of Panama, travellers taking flights to North America will be welcomed to a land of glorious contrasts. And the biggest countries, America and Canada, are blessed with multicultural societies and variegated landscapes making them undeniably the most diverse in the continent.

South of the US is Mexico, a country that effortlessly blends ancient and modern with its Mayan ruins and thriving modern cities. Further down, the countries in the central part of the continent: Costa Rica and Panama are equally as fascinating. Costa Rica has become a prime eco-tourism destination while Panama has some of the best birding and hiking in the region.

The Caribbean islands within North America – Puerto Rico, Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Trinidad and Tobago – are a traveller’s paradise. Unspoilt beaches, coral reefs and world-class resorts define these laid-back towns and the most popular of all the islands, the Bahamas, draws more than three million travellers to its islands each year.

North America climate

North America’s climate varies throughout the continent. The US and Canada have four distinct seasons while most of the other countries including Cuba and Mexico have two. On the other hand, the islands closer to the Caribbean Sea – Jamaica and the Bahamas – are year-round destinations. 

Getting around North America

Given the vastness of the continent the easiest way to get around is by plane. In the US there are several low-cost airlines including Southwest, JetBlue, AirTran and Spirit Airlines while in Canada the domestic airlines are CanJet and Air Canada Jazz. Mexicohas two large private national carriers: Mexicana and Aeromexico and regional carriers Aerocaribe and Aero Mar, and Aeromexico Connect. The smaller countries including Cuba, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica and Panama all have good domestic flight networks.

Taxis are always a reasonable option while visiting any city, but to really experience the country and explore isolated towns and villages renting a car gives you the freedom to do so, but bear in mind that apart from the US and Canada road conditions can be poor. If you’d rather save on transport, buses are the most cost effective way to get around.

What is good to know if travelling to North America?

  • Visit the captivating Grand Canyon in the US. As President Teddy Roosevelt once said, “It is the one great sight which every American should see”. And with the new Grand Canyon Skywalk you can inspect it from a glass walkway, 21 metresfrom the canyon’s rim.
  • If you’re a lover of the great outdoors then head to Canada’s British Columbia. Its snowcapped summits, rivers and forests, and quaint villages will leave you in awe.
  • Take a trip to Mexico’s Calakmul Biosphere Reserve on the Yucatán Peninsula. Inside this 1.8 million-acre lush jungle you’ll find the walled city of Calakmul with a spectacular pyramid: the tallest in the Yucatán.
  • In Cuba the Valle de los Ingenios can’t be missed. Scattered throughout the valley are 12 sugar mill ruins from the 19th century and the Manaca Iznaga estate, a hacienda owned by Pedro Iznaga, a notorious slave trafficker.
  • Reggae fans, or anyone visiting Jamaica, should head to the Nine Mile Museum in the village of Nine Mile, Bob Marley’s birthplace and resting place. The museum houses all sorts of paraphernalia including the inspirational Mt Zion Rock where he learned to play the guitar.
  • The Hacienda Beuna Vista in Puerto Rico’s colonial city Ponce is well worth a visit. Built in 1833, it was once one of the most successful coffee, corn and citrus plantations on the island. There’s also a two-story-tall waterwheel, turned by water from the river.
  • While visiting the Bahamas, take a break from the beach and walk along the trails leading to the pine trees, mangrove swamps and large caves of the Lucayan National Park.
  • Watch sugar cane carefully transform into refined sugar at the Santa Rosa sugar refinery in Panama’s agricultural town, Aguadulce. The best time to go is during grinding season from the middle of January until the middle of March.
  • Deep inside the rainforest in Trinidad and Tobago’s Northern Range is the Asa Wright Nature Center, a former cocoa and coffee plantation and home to 97 native mammals, 400 birds, 55 reptiles, 25 amphibians, and 617 butterflies, as well as more than 2,200 species of flowering plants.
  • Take a scenic drive past contrasting landscapes and coffee plantations up to Costa Rica’s Parque Nacional Volcán Arenal. Hike across the lava fields of the active Arenal Volcano or take a sunset boat tour around the Laguna de Arenal.

North America has some of the best diving in the world. Read our Top Ten Dive Sites travel tip for ideas on where to go.

  • When is the best time to fly to North America?

    Depending on the time of year you plan to book a flight to North Americaand the purpose of your trip, the two biggest countries in the continent, America and Canada, both have diverse weather conditions. During winter the eastern part of the US gets considerably colder than the West Coast and in Canada the weather is bitterly cold throughout the country. The best time to visit both countries is late spring and early fall. Mexico and Panama have two seasons: dry and wet; the dry season lasts from mid-December until mid-April and the rainy season is from May to November. The Caribbean countries enjoy warm weather all year round with a few rainy spells in summer from May to November.

  • How long is the flight to North America?

    You can find both direct and layover flights to North America from Singapore Changi Airport. Among the fastest direct flights to North America is the Singapore Airlines route to Los Angeles which takes around 15h 55min. While direct routes are faster, flights with one or more layovers tend to be cheaper so make sure you compare flights to North America to guarantee the best deal. Fly to Vancouver in around 18h 10min or to Mexico City in around 22h 15min. When flying to North America remember to take time differences into consideration. We recommend trying to find cheap flights to North America at night so that you arrive at your destination during the day.

  • What is the easiest way to get around North America?

    The quickest way to travel between states and countries in North America is by air. You’ll find many domestic and international flights for travel between Canada, Mexico and the United States. If you are staying in one area, hiring a car gives you plenty of flexibility to explore. Check if your destination airport offers car rental services once you book flights to North America. Planning a city break? Many large cities in North America have a metro system among other convenient public transport links. Once you find cheap flights to North America, find out if you can purchase a travel pass in advance as this can save you time and money.

  • What should I do before my flight to North America?

    Check the entry requirements and related costs for your destination before you book flights to North America. Singaporean citizens do not need a visa to visit most countries in North America but may need to apply for electronic travel authorisations. Remember that travel authorisations are also required for transit flights through Canada and the US. After you have found the best North America flight deals, it is worth comparing currency exchange rates and taking out cash as ATM withdrawal charges may be expensive. While internet and phone coverage is very good in cities, coverage may be patchy in remote areas. Download a map app that you can use offline if you’re planning to explore mountainous or less populous regions.

  • What can I do in North America?

    From the bright lights of the Las Vegas casinos to ancient Maya ruins in Mexico, North America has plenty of cultural highlights. Visit world-renowned museums and art galleries in New York, sample street food delights in Mexico city, and catch an ice hockey match in Montreal where the sport originated. The natural landscapes of North America are also not to be missed. Hike through national parks around the Canadian Rockies or Yosemite valley, or try watersports like sailing and surfing along the Pacific coast.
