About Fly Jamaica Airways

Fly Jamaica Airways was a Jamaican airline headquartered in Kingston, Jamaica. Fly Jamaica Airways's main hub was at Norman Manley International Airport (formerly Palisadoes Airport) which is an international airport that serves Kingston. In September 2012, Fly Jamaica Airways was certified by the Jamaica Civil Aviation Authority (JCAA) and was then permitted to operate in the United States later that year. The airline's inaugural flight to New York took place in February 2013. In June 2014, Fly Jamaica Airways acquired a new Boeing 767-300ER which was flown to Kingston to commence their flight schedule. The new aircraft was to increase flight operations to New York, to a daily service. Fly Jamaica was founded in 2011 and started operations on February 14, 2013. In that first year, it carried roughly 50,000 passengers. 

In March 2019, the airline was forced to terminate all operations after a long spell of financial trouble.
