Shops Open on Christmas Day in Jamaica 2025: Updated Hours for Groceries, Convenience Stores and Essentials

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Thursday, December 25, 2025 — Christmas Day in Jamaica is traditionally about family, food, church and rest. It’s also the day when many of the island’s biggest retailers lock up early (or don’t open at all), leaving last-minute shoppers scrambling for basics like bread, ice, baby supplies, phone credit, pain relief, and that one missing ingredient for Christmas dinner. The good news: you still have options. While major supermarkets and big-box stores are largely closed, service-station convenience stores, select 24-hour locations, and a handful of businesses operating on holiday schedules are keeping their doors open — with reduced hours and

Breeze Airways goes international from Charleston with Cancun route — but Jamaica plans hit late-2026 delay

CHARLESTON, S.C., January 6, 2026, 09:01 EST Breeze Airways will start its first international service on Jan. 17 with nonstop Saturday flights from Charleston, South Carolina, to Cancun, Mexico, the carrier said. The route will operate seasonally. WCIV The launch is a milestone for the low-cost airline as it moves beyond domestic flying and tests demand for winter leisure trips to Mexico’s Caribbean coast. In the United States, “flag carrier” status is Federal Aviation Administration approval to operate international flights, and Breeze received that certification in 2025, according to Business Insider.

Guyana’s Internet Boom: From Slow Starts to a Surging 2025 Connectivity Revolution

Overview of Internet Infrastructure in Guyana Guyana’s internet infrastructure has evolved from rudimentary beginnings into a more robust, modern network. The country – sparsely populated and covered in rainforest outside its coastal strip – long relied on a limited telecommunications setup. Until the 2000s, most Guyanese accessed the internet via dial-up or very slow broadband over copper phone lines. Today, that picture is dramatically different. Fiber-Optic Backbone: Guyana now boasts multiple fiber-optic cables carrying data domestically and internationally. One Communications (formerly GTT) and other operators have laid fiber routes along the populated coast and across parts of the interior. Notably,
