Guyana’s Aviation Minister Robeson Benn has called for the management of Fly Jamaica Airline to meet certain conditions before it begins flights out of the country.
Mr. Benn has asked for the submission of corporate financial information as well as a bond from the airline.
The Aviation Minister noted that the request was a standard requirement worldwide.
Since receiving its Air Operators Certificate last September, Fly Jamaica has applied to the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority to fly to the country.
The airline has already conducted a proving flight to Guyana with Jamaican civil aviation officials aboard.
On Thursday, February 14, Fly Jamaica started commercial flights from Jamaica to the United States and plans are in the making to fly from the Georgetown-New York route via Jamaica.
Fly Jamaica Airways is a partnership involving chief executive officer Paul Ronald Reece who is from Guyana and three Jamaican shareholders including Chief Operating Officer Captain Lloyd Tai who was a pilot with Air Jamaica.
