Travellers to Honduras must fill in new online forms
(CNS): In order to prevent delays on flights to Honduras, Cayman Airways Limited is asking passengers travelling to La Ceiba to complete and submit the necessary travel documents required by the Honduran Government before arriving at the airport to check in. The Honduran Government recently made it mandatory for all passengers of all nationalities travelling to and from the country to complete customs declarations online.
Manual forms are no longer being provided at Cayman Airways check-in counters, and those who have not completed online submissions can be refused access to the flight.
Only Nicaraguan nationals travelling to Honduras must fill out the immigration “prechequeo” to enter the country, and the “authorization to travel” request must be submitted seven days prior to the travel date.
When checking in for their flight, passengers must present evidence of approved travel documents to enter the country, or they may be denied boarding.
Cayman Airways is reminding all passengers travelling to any destination that it is their sole responsibility to research and secure the travel documents required for entry into the country they are travelling to. Per global industry standards, Cayman Airways reserves the right to deny boarding of passengers who are noncompliant with customs and immigration entry requirements at the time of check-in for their flight, at the passenger’s expense.

CNS: Thank you!
bro you awesome, thanks, shiz hard to find!!!
Dear Kenny boy and CIG,
please tell me a flight you’ve been on to another country where you’ve physically had to fill out a declaration/customs form. Anything before 1990s doesn’t count. Please scrap these forms and get with the damn times!
These are online forms required by the Honduran government. Nothing to do with Cayman
Except that if they are denied entry, CA has to fly them back here.
If you read the article it clearly states that passengers will be refused boarding if onlinr form not submitted.
If there are no physical immigration forms for completion in Cayman or Honduras for machine-readable passport holders, what then are you talking about?
Will agree it’s a bit of a mystery why CAL and AA still hand out paper Customs Declaration and Immigration forms for the Cayman Islands when airlines should have been informed by DoT that it’s been all kiosk entry for over a year now, and declarations are only for those exceeding their household duty free limit.
While DoT are doing their jobs, on the horn with the air carriers, we might ask them to update the destination address from cringey “Grand Caymans” or “Grand Cayman Islands” to self-explanatory geographical label “Grand Cayman”.
Ongoing DoT misfires are the aspect that has to do with Kenny. Not the CBC automation already in place.
And, by the way, what did it cost us when Mac, Jay and Eric went on their epic jolly to Honduras.?
9:40. less than CIMA pays its board members for a month.
Ahem, what happens in La Ceiba, stays in La Ceiba.
