Extra repatriation flights to Miami added for June

In response to the ongoing high demand for repatriation flights from Cayman to Miami, Cayman Airways Limited (CAL) has now added flights on June 12 & 26, 2020. This will result in a series of Miami repatriation flights that will operate on June 5, 12, 19 & 26, 2020, with the same flight schedule as previously announced:

A maximum of 2 excess bags per passenger can be accommodated for this flight. These additional bags will be at a cost of US$20 for the first excess bag and US$50 for the second excess bag. No overweight or oversized bags will be accepted. Passengers who expect to have excess bags MUST prepay for it at the time of booking or at least 24 hours before travel. Please note that the first bag will travel confirmed, but excess bags will travel space-available and may take several weeks to reach the passenger should baggage space not be available on the repatriation flight.
