Man pulls off extreme 8-hour trip to another country, flies home same day

Kevin Droniak, 28, left the city at 5:45 a.m. and landed in Kingston just before 10 a.m., giving him only a few hours to explore before heading back, SWNS reported.

He planned the trip around what he considers essential to the island.

After arriving on the island, he followed a recommendation from a local.

"My Uber driver suggested this waterfall and that was the highlight of my day," he said. "It was awesome, no one else was there."

With such a tight schedule, he said he has learned to be less concerned about small details while traveling.

"I'm just used to showing up with sand in my socks on the plane," he said.

The entire trip cost $382, including flights, food and transportation.

The Jamaica visit is one of roughly 30 rapid-fire trips Droniak has taken from New York, SWNS reported.

"It's a 14-hour flight from New York and I went on a safari for the day, which was a dream," he said.
