Jamaican Company Charged with Tourist Harassment

At least one tenant at the Sangster International Airport in Jamaica’s Kingston has been forced to cease activities at the multibillion-dollar facility by the end of this month, as a result of perceived tourist harassment.

The tenant, Wild Harbor Tours, publishers of the Wild Harbor incentive coupons, was allegedly acting outside of its lease boundaries.

The measures come months after stakeholders complained that tourists walking from the ground-floor hospitality lounge were being pounced upon by numerous persons handing out brochures, newspapers, marketing material or repeatedly asking visitors to purchase information booklets in the restricted coach park.

In one case it is reported that many of the visitors had been pressured to purchase items for false reasons such as “hurricane relief” to feed the children.
