(CNS): Cayman Airways Limited (CAL) has added two repatriation flights to Cuba and two charter flights to Barbados. The first Havana flight is on Saturday, 19 December, followed by one on 9 January. Both flights will depart Grand Cayman at 1:25pm on the respective Saturday and return the same day, leaving Havana at 4pm. The Barbados charter will leave on Sunday, 20 December, and return the same day with a second flight on 3 January.

The Barbados charters was arranged by the Honorary Consul to Barbados for Barbadian nationals and others from Eastern Caribbean Islands to go home for Christmas or to leave Cayman as they no longer have work. The charters will also bring some people from Barbados back to Cayman.

    I honestly hope Cuba is one way passenger flight cause those people never ever subscribe to laws or rules so quarantining is definitely not going to work for them at all.

    Should be outgoing flights only. How many Caymanians are in Cuba/Barbados needing repatriation? I’d guess ZERO!

        I’m not against people traveling BUT, by definition, repatriation means “the return of someone to their own country”.

      Bajan covid is the best covid. Much better than the UK, US or Italian covid.

      As is happening in the Cayman Islands currently, all of the cases in Barbados happen to be people coming from overseas; not local community cases. And with the rigorous testing that’s being done those infected persons are housed in an isolation facility in the northern part of the island. And when I say isolated, I mean isolated. So no, you won’t be getting any “Bajan COVID” there in Cayman.
