18/08/2016 09:41:01

Wednesday, the Haitian airline Sunrise Airways has announced that it had entered the final phase of its application process towards the launch of its first flight to Jamaica "Our journey to this point has been long, with some minor turbulence endured along the way, but I’m very pleased to say that we are now, indeed, on final approach to spread our wings to Jamaica this fall," declared Philippe Bayard, President of Sunrise Airways.

Based on its initial plan to serve the route Kingston-Port-au-Prince https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-8885-haiti-economy-sunrise-airways-plans-to-expand-its-service-to-jamaica-and-tci.html , Sunrise significantly expanded its commitment to the market of Jamaica.

"Our current application to the Jamaican Civil Aviation Authority features a total of 25 possible new routes," declared Bayard. "Sunrise intends to be the only airline serving all three of Jamaica’s international gateways – Norman Manley in Kingston, Sangster International in Montego Bay, and Ian Flemming International Airport in Ocho Rios – with overseas flights."

The new flights proposed by Sunrise Airways from Jamaica will connect the three international airports with destinations in Haiti, the Dominican Republic and Cuba.

"We see tremendous potential for growth along all of our proposed lines of flying, especially the Jamaica–Cuba routes," indicated Bayard stressing "We’re committed to serving more of Cuba from more of Jamaica than any other airline, creating valuable links for foreign commercial and cultural exchange, as well as unique leisure travel options enabling vacationers to experience the best of both countries." https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-16759-haiti-economy-sunrise-airways-increases-its-services-on-cuba.html

Sunrise Airways expects to receive final approval from the Jamaican Civil Aviation Authority (JCAA) by September 1, 2016 for the launch of its new Jamaica flights during the fall of 2016. Sunrise Airways will deploy its flagship aircraft the ATR 42-320 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-16714-haiti-economy-sunrise-airways-add-a-new-aircraft-to-its-fleet.html on its new routes to Jamaica.
