RE: Air Jamaica Back To GCM, NAS

That type of turn around is very common for the island Jm017.
Don't forget Montego Bay is now the hub for JM.
Most of their flights now originate there, and return via KIN.

RE: Air Jamaica Back To GCM, NAS

Jm07 maybe because the return flight is for KIN passengers that need to connect through Montego Bay!
It's a simple turn around loop.

First LCC To Be Annexed ..

With the current proliferation of LCCs, which of the current crop will succumb to one of the big boys.

Or can the industry continue to support the two tiered system?

Finally which of the new start ups from the established carriers will fail/succeed?
