Air Jamaica was the flagship carrier of Jamaica, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Kingston, operating as a full-service airline that primarily served the Caribbean region with connections to North America. The airline offered scheduled passenger service from its main hub at Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston, with routes spanning the Caribbean islands, the United States, and Canada, positioning itself as a key regional carrier. Air Jamaica operated multiple cabin classes including business and economy seating and maintained a frequent flyer program to reward its loyal customers. The airline ceased operations in 2015 after financial difficulties, with its remaining routes and some assets subsequently acquired by Caribbean Airlines. During its final decades, Air Jamaica faced increasing competition from larger carriers and low-cost airlines, ultimately leading to its closure after nearly five decades of service.
