Jamaica's tourism recovery may take a while longer as Air Canada on Wednesday joined rival WestJet Airlines in extending a three month suspension of sun-destination flights to Jamaica, the Caribbean and Mexico.
Canadian carriers agreed in January to suspend operations to sun destinations until April 30 due to concerns over the virus spreading during spring break trips.
Air Canada spokeswoman said by email that it will extend the suspensions through the end of May.
Canada's largest carrier would continue operating some essential flights carrying cargo to Mexico City, Barbados and Kingston, while coming back with temporary foreign workers and Canadians abroad on return trips.
Onex Corp-owned WestJet said on Tuesday it would extend its sun-flight suspensions until June 4.
