    My biggest question is with wi-fi and internet not always the best in Jamaica what will they do if their card system goes down for a few hours?

    Lol, for sure. It's not a question of if but a question of when.

    My guess is all will go to cards only in due time. Seems to be the way everything is going.

    I rather large number of Jamaicans do not want to use cards on a regular basis. It will be at least a decade, probably much longer for Jamaica to go cashless.

    And the card reader systems go down on a weekly basis. This is going to be interesting...

    Note to self .......skip Treehouse. In 25 trips I've never used a credit card. Cash used to be king.

    DITTO on that! I’ve always used only cash while in Jamaica or elsewhere traveling .Even here in New York I will not go into any cashless establishments… crazy. I carry a credit card just in case in of emergencies. I don’t think that was a very smart business move on Gail’s part.
