A quick call to your travel agent friend reveals a one stop connection involving two nonstop flights - each aboard the same airline with each operating the same aircraft type. Book it, Danno! Identify the airline, the connection point and the aircraft type.
The airline is based in the Caribbean, named after its island with the connection made at its home base. It's not Air Jamaica and no 727s are involved
Given the eponymous airline and home island, I initially thought of Cayman Airways and Dominicana; however, in perusing back upthread, there was another clue given in the “not JM” response, viz., “an aircraft with somewhat more range than a 727-200”. Therefore, I’ll posit Air Aruba with a Boeing 757
An excellent guess, Sir, but no, it wasn't Air Aruba, which BTW did not acquire its first 757 until 1990.
Additionally, the aircraft was not a 757 of any stripe...
Please, guess again!
