      It wouldn’t be possible unless Caribbean Airlines sells the routes back to the Jamaican government, and there are enough investors to re-create the airline. Remember, Air Jamaica only had two profitable years in its forty-something years of operations.🤷🏽‍♂️

      it will take good fellow citizens who forms the Government who will put the affairs of Jamaicans first for that to happen.all what we been witness to is the selling out of brand Jamaica.

    Who remembers standing on the waving gallery dressed in your Sunday best, and seeing the Air Jamaica flight that your relative was on, finally coming in to view. Then you wait for the doors to open, looking for your relative to come to the door and walk down the plane steps, then rushing downstairs to the departure area to see your relative as they walk out to greet you.
    Same thing when they’re leaving. You would stand on the waving gallery, watch them walk up the stairs and go into the plane. They come to the door several times to wave a final goodbye. Then the hummingbird is off, leaving tears on the waving gallery.

    I first flew Air Jamaica on January 20, 1973. 2 months before my 8th birthday. My brothers and I were relocating to NY to be with our parents. The plane we traveled on was the legendary 4 engine 707. It was fantastic. 😊🎉

    This Air Jamaica is before Bush Stuward too it over. Young people today never heard of Air Jamaica and no body today remember that the Norman Manley airport was once a royal naval air station HMS BUZZARD during WW2 that use to base Sword fish squadrons that did anti -sumaremine patrol.
