Opposition calls for talks with Caribbean Airlines

KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC - The opposition Jamaica Labour Party (JLP), has called on the government to have dialogue with Caribbean Airlines (CAL) about the reduction of flights to Jamaica. Edmund Bartlett, Opposition Spokesman on Tourism, in his contribution to the 2013/2014 Budget Debate on Wednesday said he is worried about the implications for the country, as last year, CAL accounted for 50 percent of flights to the Norman Manley International Airport and 10 percent at the Sangster International. Bartlett wants Tourism Minister, Dr. Wykham McNeil, to meet with his counterparts in Trinidad and Tobago to address this matter.
