Air Jamaica has announced that 40 of the companys 220 pilots will be let go over the next two months. Its all part of the airlines corporate restructuring program.
The Jamaica Airline Pilots Association (JALPA) has been advised of the redundancies and the 23 staff and 17 contract pilots were notified shortly after.
Dr. Vincent Lawrence, Executive Chairman of Air Jamaica, says the airline needs fewer pilots as it is now operating a smaller number of aircraft. Air Jamaica has cut four routes and has reduced the frequency of flights on other routes.
All payments including redundancy packages will be paid to those affected in accordance with the law.

Why de people dem haffi suffa
How come when we finally get an opportunity to caputalize on something sucessful somethings always goes wrong. Is it me or is there omething wrong wiith this picture. We're not doing enough to secure or own business venue. We have to find out what's wrong and tackle the root of the problem and solve it fast before it get's out of hand. If we don't not only do the employees miss out but the Jamaican miss out also.

Air Jamaica
It is real funny how JAmaican citizen are suffering because of an airline that most Jamaicans have never even been on. The majority of Jamaicans living in Jamaica have never flown on a plan in there life. However the government has choosen to take funds that could be used to fight crime improve health care and fund education. To bail out an airline the the truth does not generate and income that can be benificial in Improving the lives of Jamaicans.

Labourites r Jamaicans too
Pj act like corruption and bad management do not exist in Jamaica, after 847 million US dollars loss and growing: Look how much other airline available and not in those trouble due to bad govt. and cronyism: We cannot feedback on RJr properly no more, for PJ ,PNp and his cronyism is blocking certain anti-PNP VIEWS AND FACTUAL EXPRESSIONS OF OPPRESSION THAT IS BEEN HEAP UP ON OUR PEOPLE; While he shook Zeeks hands and Clue, that is the Oliver one, former PNP MP accused him of, we know what and no police can apprehend him; Might as well get de bigman dem to run the country instead, for a dem run things; Lawd God, betta must deh.
