AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Tourism Demand vs Capacity: Jamaica’s tourism recovery is running hot but still constrained by Hurricane Melissa damage—JTB says airfares are high because flights are full, while about 30% of affected hotel rooms are still offline and 11,000+ rooms are expected back to market in 2026–2027. Cruise Growth: Jamaica welcomed 736,000+ cruise passengers from 234 ship calls in Jan–Jul, and Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Destiny is set for its inaugural Falmouth call on Oct. 13 with just under 2,800 passengers. Education & Human Capital: Opposition says back-to-school efforts are failing, citing unrepaired hurricane-damaged classrooms and unsafe conditions; JTA President La Sonja Harrison warns Jamaica faces an education emergency, calling for a national foundational learning plan. Youth & Skills Investment: Supreme Ventures Foundation commits $100 million to fully fund 25 young people from State care through university, including stipends and counselling support. Business & Jobs: Scotia Group reports strong profit momentum, while Lydian Memorial expands leadership with multiple senior appointments across HR, sales, production, marketing and operations. Public Safety: St James police urge residents to seek permission for social events as murders remain elevated.
