The Nation Newspaper SATURDAY'S CHILD: Come fly with me : "I remember going on a Caribbean Star flight from Trinidad, island-hopping my way to Antigua. There was only one bottle of water on the flight and we drank it out on the only 'leg' that was long enough for a 'beverage service'. I remember asking myself if this was owned by a billionaire and all it had on board was one solitary bottle of water, what would have happened if he was a mere millionaire? " There is, of course, the old saying that if you want to become a millionaire you first become a billionaire and then buy an airline. Clearly that is not a mere flight of fancy since Caribbean Star proved that BWIA, Air Jamaica and LIAT were not the only Caribbean airlines that were leaders in losses.

'In addition to great value, the island offers accessibility from most major gateways in the U.S. These are no doubt contributing factors to Jamaica’s recent honor from TripAdvisor; the island was voted to the Top 10 Island Escape list.”"
