Ian Burns, CEO of REDjet, said Tuesday 6th Sept that a third aircraft would be added to its fleet in December and another in the first quarter of 2012. Two more would be added by the end of next year.

"These will create over 75 new jobs in quarter one of 2012 and another 75 in the latter part of 2012 . . . A lot of those jobs will be in Barbados," Burns said.

The airline is also preparing to launch six additional routes in the next six months, starting with Trinidad to Guyana on Monday. The other routes include St Lucia, Panama, Jamaica, St Martin and Antigua.

Meanwhile, chief operations officer Kevin Dudley said the airline was still standing behind the safety and reliability of the existing MD82 aircrafts.

He said it was the most popular aircraft ever built and there were about 600 or 700 still operating in the United States, Europe and other parts of the world.
