Jamaican operator bemoans lack of flights  
UK Travel  
   

An all-inclusive holiday operator based in Jamaica has warned that there would not be enough services to cater to the demands for the Caribbean and South America next summer.


SuperClubs has stated that some exclusive destinations including Panama and the Bahamas need more aircraft capacity to balance the "explosion" in demand for resort accommodation, a report by TTG Live said.


Paul Pennicook, the president of international lifestyles for SuperClubs has expressed his fears that there would not be enough flights from the UK next year.


While discussing the implications of the present scenario in the airline industry for these destinations, Paul Pennicook said while talking to TGG Live: "Our South America properties have no charters in place, but these are being discussed. What little influence we have we will use, but really it is up to tourist boards to do most of the pushing.”


Last month, British Airways stated that it had decided to offer a weekly service to the two-island Caribbean nation of Saint Kitts and Nevis with effect from early next year. While commenting on the decision during that time, a BA spokesman said that the route was an expression of the airline"s commitment to the Caribbean region.
