Nonstop Flights From Michigan to Honeymoon Destinations

Let’s face it, flying probably isn’t the most exciting part of your honeymoon. In fact, most couples can’t wait until the flight is over! We don’t blame them, as delays and air travel can be exhausting, especially when layovers are included. To make your honeymoon planning as easy as possible, we’ve detailed all the best nonstop flights from Michigan to honeymoon destinations around the world, from Paris to Mexico. 

1. Tampa

For a tropical honeymoon that is a quick and easy nonstop flight from Detroit, Tampa is a great choice! The flight is typically between 2-3 hours and can have you and your partner changing from sweatshirts to shorts in just a matter of hours. You can get to Tampa directly from Michigan on two airlines: Delta & Spirit. Spirit is a budget airline that will typically be cheaper but with more restrictions (such as paying for a carry-on bag), while Delta will be more expensive but have more comforts and inclusions.

2. Cancun

Frontier, Delta, and Spirit Airlines all have nonstop flights directly from Detroit to Cancun. The flights are all around 4 hours long, meaning you can leave Michigan behind at 6:17 a.m. and be in the warm air of Mexico by 11:00 a.m. It doesn’t sound much better than that! Cancun is the perfect place for a romantic all-inclusive honeymoon for you and your new spouse, as Mexico has the 2nd most all-inclusive resorts in the world (directly behind Egypt).

3. Paris

Detroit has a daily flight directly to Paris, France, the most romantic city in the world. If you and your new spouse would like a European honeymoon, Paris is the perfect place to kick it off! Many think that flying to Paris includes an extremely long overnight flight, but the total direct flight time from Detroit on AirFrance is only 7 hours and 30 minutes. That’s less than an average workday!

4. Orlando

Spirit and Delta offer direct flights from Detroit to Orlando, while Frontier offers direct flights from both Detroit and Grand Rapids. If a Disney honeymoon is on your bucket list, that makes getting there as easy as a 3-hour flight! Orlando is the perfect central location to jumpstart your Florida honeymoon at other destinations. It is a 57-minute drive to Daytona Beach on the Atlantic Coast and a 2-hour drive to Clearwater Beach on the Gulf Coast.

5. Jamaica

Jamaica is another popular honeymoon destination that is easy to get to from Michigan airports. Delta has a nonstop flight from Detroit straight to Montego Bay. If you don’t mind a layover and would like to save a little money on flights, budget airlines like Spirit can get you there with one layover in Florida. Even with a layover in Florida, travel time from Michigan to Jamaica is typically between 6-7 hours — not bad!
