 Now I know Why there are no bad reviews on the couples site! 

Another Lady and I were having a discussion on how terrible the service is on air jamaica! Well to our shock and disbelief our responses were being edited and now they have been taken off the boards altogether! I am appaulled that Couples would censor peoples opinions like that! Especially when its very important imformation about a particular airline! I was on Couples side when people were saying that they were just being bashed here on this site! But now I know this is the only place people have to come to complain about things they dont like! Shame on you Couples! raye1

Why are you bashing Air Jamaica???

I am visiting in November and will be flying Continental this trip. Why? I have vouchers from an August trip to Chicago when my entire family was bumped for overbooking. I was the first in line to give up my seats! I knew the vouchers could get me to Jamaica.

The negative: Continental flight times are terrible, arriving in Jamaica very late and departing early. I always prefer Air Jamaica due to times!

Also, flew on Northwest Airlines form Little Rock to MBJ. Several minutes before landing in Montego Bay we hit clear air turbulent. The toilet came off the wall in first class, stewardess broke her collar bone, a person had several teeth knocked out, and the wine cart flew into the pilot (can't say c... on here) pit. We were all saturated with red wine when we arrived! Nothing happens very quickly in Jamaica, you know you are in trouble when a full emergency crew is waiting for you!

Air Jamaica������what did they do???

Thank you MsL and Whams.

I am sure that whatever happened must have been an isolated incident.

Air Jam spends millions on Public Reations, Marketing and even more on Customer Service. Nobody is perfect. It will be interesting to discover what really happened from the person who made this post.

Air Jamaica is a very well managed company. Just like all the others that Mr Butch Stewart is involved with. All the staff are very well trained professionals and take their work and responsabilities most seriously. We are talking about National Pride here.

And all Jamaican are very proud people. Go and see Cool Runnings again, if anybody has forgotten the story.

Such true words by MsL.......feels like you're in Jamaica as soon as you get on board.

Thanks to all who answered! I don't mind flight delays or even no food or drinks on the plane. As long as I get there safely I will be happy. This will be my sixth trip there and I can't wait. The part about the dangerous airline just threw me. I hadn't expected to hear that since I thought their flight record for safety was excellent. Thanks again.

First off, the owner of Couples isn't part owner of Air Jamaica. The owner of Sandals is - Butch Stewart. Secondly, I have to disagree with you on Air Jamaica. It is one of the better airlines I have flown on. In fact, they have consistantly have gotten better over the years and they have a good safety record. Their staff have always been good as have their service. And how many airlines actually feed you and give you free beer and champagne/wine? We have flown Air Jamaica since the early 1990's (more than a dozen times) and will continue to fly them as they are one of the better airlines in the air.
