Cayman Airways (photo by Lana Gilyun)(CNS): Cayman Airways Limited is introducing a seasonal nonstop weekly service to Austin, Texas, starting in May. Austin was picked after coordination with the DoT’s analysis on routes, seasonal travel patterns, strengthening summer demand, and broadening the airline’s reach into Central and Western American markets. Tourism Minister Gary Rutty said it was a strong example of how the Cayman Islands uses the national airline to support tourism growth in the Cayman Islands. “Austin is a fast-growing market, and introducing direct connectivity allows us to convert proven interest into actual arrivals. I look forward to this route strengthening the Cayman Islands presence in the USA and delivering real benefits for our tourism economy,” Rutty stated.
