Air Jamaica, established on August 27, 1963, served as Jamaica’s national airline. The Jamaican government opted not to invest in British West Indian Airways (BWIA), leading to the creation of Jamaica Air Service Ltd. This new airline was co-owned by the Jamaican government, the British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC), and BWIA. Employees from BWIA in Jamaica were transferred to the new company. In May 2011, Caribbean Airlines took over ownership and operations of Air Jamaica. Caribbean Airlines, based in Piarco, Trinidad and Tobago, managed Air Jamaica’s administrative functions from Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston, Jamaica. Air Jamaica ceased operations in 2015.
