Following the lead of Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica has given new low-cost air carrier REDjet the go-ahead to begin operations. “In continuous discussions with the Civil Aviation Authority on Thursday and Friday, and ultimately, the chairman, they advise me that all safety issues, we can give REDjet to fly Jamaica to Barbados and we have issued instructions to be carried,” said Jamaica Transport Minister Mike Henry. “The board will meet and send whatever it is through with the policy officers to me.” [Jamaica Observer]
