Jags Aviation (Georgetown Ogle) has been acquired by local Guyanese mining and construction firm, BK Group, whose plans for the carrier include turning it into a scheduled domestic and regional operator. BK Group of Companies Public Relations Consultant, Alex Graham, told the Guyana Times that initially, the relaunched carrier will operate domestically with some aircraft to be based out of Georgetown Cheddi Jagan.

“Once people want to fly, we will fly them. The whole idea is to provide expanded capacity… a lot of our interest is expanding infrastructure to explore Guyana so we want to provide services to people who are visiting Guyana to see its tourism products,” he said.

Founded in 2006, Jags secured its Air Operators Certificate in 2007 and currently operates a single BN-2 on charter flights throughout Guyana.
