Help- need advice on best way to get from Montego Bay to Port Antonio. We fly into Montego Bay on Saturday but are staying for 1 week in Port Antonio. We arrive 1 hr after the daily flight on Jamaica Express to Ocho Rios. Should we drive? How long is the drive? How hard/dangerous is it?

Thanks

It's a l-o-n-g 6 hours/don't drive.
Either change tix to Kingston and connect AJX flights to Portee if same day timing works/or have driver pick you up at Kingston airport for the 2 hour drive.Don't attempt the drive from Kingston to Portee yourself. Or stay over a night in MoBay (Hotel Montego is a decent/safe/relatively cheap place 3 min.from MoBay airport if you need a layover hotel for a single evening) and take next day's flight.

USE TIM AIR. THEY HAVE FLEXIBLE CONNECTOR FLIGHTS. WWW.TIMAIR.COM

I have to top what Tiv's and Tpon have advised. Driving from MoBay to PA would be cruel and unusual punishment for the novice driver.

If you do go the way of Kingston, the mountain roads are quite challenging.

We drove it (we enjoy driving in JA though) but we stopped for a couple of nights near Port Maria (a bit more than halfway as we couldn't have made Port A by dark).

Kingston is much closer or look into taking Tim Air from MoBay to Oracabessa (east of Ochi...I think that's where the "ochi" airport actually is).
