Covid compliant transportation.

[original spanky]

does the driver have to show proof to someone at the airport or do we have to show proof that we are riding with an approved driver?

When you fill in your Travel Authorization form at VisitJamaica.com ... one of the requirements is to declare who your driver may be.
If your driver works for Juta...you'll click on the Juta option.

There are six JUTA options on the approved list. If our driver is Negril based, I assume that we check JUTA Negril?

That works....or you could also ask what Juta chapter your driver is affiliated with...or just hit the plain old Juta option.

After further conversation with our driver, he is not JUTA, but he is a red plate taxi. A long time Jamaican visitor currently in GI told us that we just say that we are being picked up by a red plate taxi and that will be sufficient. Any thoughts on the red plate being good?

There is no "option" on the application for a "Red Plate Driver". They must be certified by the JTB as Covid trained and certified. The application will be denied without that.

Are they associated with any of the unions, JCal or Maxi?

Both are certified by the JTB...
