What nonstop flights are available from Houston to the Caribbean?
I am looking to travel to the caribbean out of Houston's Bush Airport - are there any islands that have direct flights - other than Puerto Rico, Aruba, or Jamaica? Specifically, I'm looking to get to Antigua, but not interested in the 12 hour travel time I'm finding through the travel sites. Advice or Ideas?

They usually don't have direct flights from the mainland to the Carribean because it makes more sense to stop somewhere such as Miami where more people will be going and then have a connection to the Carribean destination. Around the holiday times when more people are going they will have more direct flights. The direct flights will be to the most popular destinations such as montego bay jamaica or grand cayman http://www.orbitz.com you can look at all the different dates and destinations. I wouldn't choose a destination based on the time it takes to get there though because most will take a while anyway.
