Kingston, Jamaica – Effective September 9, 2005, Air Jamaica will have daily flights between Jamaica and Miami from dawn to dusk with the return of JM021/020. Following high demand, especially from the business community for the early morning non-stop flights between Kingston and Miami, the airline made the strategic decision for the resumption of service.
A flight will depart Kingston at 6:25am for Miami arriving at 9:05am, while another flight will depart Miami at 10:05am to arrive Montego Bay at 10:40am and Kingston at 11:45am. Both flights will be operated with Air Jamaica’s state of the art A320 aircraft with 138 economy and 12 first class seats. In order to give passengers the convenience of a longer day, a flight will depart Miami at 6:00 pm arriving in Kingston at 6:40pm.
Executive Chairman, Dr. Vincent Lawrence says, ” We have made a commitment to provide an early morning direct service that meets the needs of our passengers, especially members of the business community who wish to get to Miami and back within the same day. Whenever there is a fall in demand we respond to that change. In like manner when passengers call for increased service on any route, we listen and try to meet their demand.”
The return of JM021/020 will bring the number of weekly flights operated by Air Jamaica between Fort Lauderdale and Miami to Jamaica to 53. Air Jamaica is the only carrier with non-stop service to Kingston and Montego Bay from both Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
