Many Jamaicans are not happy with the deal and believe the government should have sold the airline to a Jamaican entity.

Jamaica is a big island with hundreds of miles of coastline, so you’d expect to find a number of great beaches here. Some of the best are located in big resort communities like Montego Bay and Negril, but you also can find great sand, surf, seaside bars and friendly people in more overlooked destinations like Port Antonio and Treasure Beach.

Dunn’s River Falls is a famous waterfall near Ocho Rios, Jamaica and a major Caribbean tourist attraction that attracts thousands of visitors each year.[1][2].
About 1,000 feet (300 m) high,[3] the waterfalls are terraced like giant stair steps. Several small lagoons are interspersed among the vertical sections of the falls.
Climbing up the waterfalls is a popular tourist activity[4] and is often, but not exclusively, performed with the help of tour guides from the park. The falls are bordered by lush, green vegetation that shades the area from the sun. This helps keep the area cool as people try to climb the waterfall. The falls can be hiked with relative ease, often in a hand-holding human chain behind the guide. Read More at Wikepedia.org

 Bye, bye love Bird The Jamaica Cabinet has given approval for the divestment of Air Jamaica to Caribbean Airlines effective Friday (April 30). Air Jamaica profitable routes will be sold out to Trinidad owned Caribbean Airlines. Many Jamaicans are still unhappy with the sale and still believe that the government has not done enough to try to keep the airline. We are hoping that Air Jamaica will still fly with all the amenities offered by the previous ‘Love Bird.’
