Tourism Minister Edmund Bartlett is welcoming American Airline’s move to operate two weekly non-stop flights, between the Miami International Airport and The Ian Flemming International Airport located just outside of Ocho Rios.
Described as a valuable addition to Jamaica’s tourism development, this initiative is set to take flight later this year on November 5, operating on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The tourist hub will be American Airline’s third destination on the island. Minister Bartlett says two rotations per week is a great start to encourage other airlines to fly into the area.
