Around 8,000 British citizens are understood to be holidaying in Jamaica.
In a statement the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) said it was “preparing flights to bolster commercial capacity and transport British nationals out of Jamaica”, and would be launching “a flight registration form for British nationals to register their details and interest in flights”.
It added that it was “in close contact with travel companies”.
It comes as Tui announced it has cancelled all package holidays to Jamaica until 9 November.
