Author Topic:   Grand Cayman Airfare prices Marty TUG Member Posts: 251 From: Kansas City, MO, USA Registered: Dec 2000 posted 05-29-2005 22:13                I will be looking for airfare for my first trip to Grand Cayman in Oct. Please tell me what would be a good deal on airfare and when I should book to get the best deal. Thanks.

October may be tough since the volume of travel to the island will be less than say in the winter months ie. fewer flights = higher prices. Check AA, US Air and Delta - most flights will connect through Miami, Atlanta or Charlotte. I copy/pasted this from another thread that's a few days old: quote: I just saw a promotion from US Airways that if we go this summer we can get roundtrip tix for $200.00. ************ I heard Delta also had a reduced fare, but have not tried to confirm the info. Delta and Continental codeshare, so it might be worthwhile to check both airlines fron Newark and connecting thru Atlanta.

I generally watch prices to GCM from DC, as we own a unit there. I don't know what you consider a good price from KC, but currently, you can find airfares for that month for under $500 from MCI on USAirways.

OK, I signed up for the Cayman Airways emails, travelocity fare watch. I really do not know what a "deal" is. As was stated above US air has a flight for $477 right now, is it a good deal or do you think I can do better? Thanks. Barbara IP: Logged
