Fly Jamaica leasing aircraft for Christmas season – source

With Fly Jamaica’s operations being severely affected by the recent crash landing, which has left the company with only one operating aircraft, management has made provisions to lease planes to continue serving their passengers, a source says.

These preparations, Stabroek News was told, are meant to cushion the load of the demanding Christmas season, and come at a time when passengers have been heavily criticizing the airline’s operations.

Following the November 9 crash landing at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) Timehri, which has now left the Kingston, Jamaica airline with only one operating aircraft, many persons have publicly complained on the airline’s Facebook page about cancelled flights and the lack of information being provided to them by the company.
