Perhaps, indeed. I have a postcard of a 747 wearing a hybrid Aer Lingus/Air Jamaica livery. Ugly airplane. I would love to have seen it wearing only the Air Jamaica livery but unfortunately that never happened.
Air Jamaica actually placed an order for a pair of L-1011s back in the late 60s. That order was never taken up and the airline ended up leasing one instead. I believe the A300s were also leased (JM also operated the A310, though it doesn't show up in my schedules) Here's a sampling of schedules involving these three aircraft...
JM 040 BWI-MBJ 925a - 1225p L10 Operates: 1567 Note: All Y class
JM 054 LAX-MBJ 1130p - 700a AB3 Operates: 567
JM 010 JFK-MBJ 1015a - 100p 747 Operates: Daily
