KINGSTON, Jamaica – Jamaica has secured 1.6 million air seats into the island this summer, with the bulk coming from the United States — the island's major market — even as the country continues to woo visitors from the non-traditional areas of Eastern Europe and Latin America.
This is welcome news for the many tourism interests now gathered in Montego Bay for the 21st staging of the island's premiere trade show, Jamaica Product Exchange (JAPEX), at the Montego Bay Convention Centre.
