Cayman Airways

Cayman Airways is the flag carrier airline of the British Overseas Territory of the Cayman Islands. With its head office in Grand Cayman,〔"http://www.caymanairways.com/company/contact-us<〕 it operates mainly as an international and domestic scheduled passenger carrier, with cargo services available on all routes. Its operations are based at Owen Roberts International Airport (GCM) in George Town, Grand Cayman.〔Flight International 3 April 2007〕 The airline also offers a limited charter service. Cayman Airways' slogan is "''Those'' ''who'' ''fly us love us''".
== History ==

The airline was established and started operations on August 7, 1968. It was formed following the Cayman Islands Government's purchase of 51% of Cayman Brac Airways from LACSA, the Costa Rican flag carrier, and became wholly government owned in December 1977.〔 LACSA had been serving Grand Cayman since the mid 1950s as an intermediate stop on its route between San Jose, Costa Rica and Miami with some flights also making a stop in Havana, Cuba as well between Grand Cayman and Miami.〔http://www.timetableimages.com, Oct. 1, 1955 LACSA system timetable〕 In 1965, Cayman Brac Airways (which was also known as CBA Airways Ltd.) was operating regional services from Owen Roberts International Airport in George Town, Grand Cayman to Gerrard Smith International Airport on Cayman Brac as well as to Little Cayman via a flag stop and Montego Bay, Jamaica.〔http://www.timetableimages.com, May 1, 1965 CBA Airways Ltd.〕 According to this airline's May 1, 1965 system timetable, weekly service with a twin engine Beechcraft 18 aircraft was being operated on a routing of Grand Cayman – Little Cayman (flag stop only) – Cayman Brac – Montego Bay with an additional weekly service being flown between Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac with an intermediate stop on occasion at Little Cayman as a flag stop. This same timetable also states that connections at Grand Cayman were available to LACSA flights operated with Douglas DC-6B prop aircraft for service to Miami and also to Pan Am flights at Montego Bay for connecting service to Miami and New York. By 1970, LACSA had introduced British Aircraft Corporation BAC One-Eleven twin jets on its San Jose, Costa Rica – Grand Cayman – Miami route.〔http://www.timetableimages.com, July 1, 1970 LACSA system timetable〕
Early on, Cayman Airways first aircraft was a single Douglas DC-3. A few months after it was formed, the airline flew its first international route to Kingston, Jamaica (KIN) using a BAC One-Eleven jet leased from LACSA.〔http://www.airliners.net, photos of Cayman Airways BAC One-Eleven aircraft leased from LACSA〕 International service to Miami (MIA) was initiated using a single leased Douglas DC-6 propliner. The July 1, 1972 Cayman Airways system timetable lists nonstop flights between Grand Cayman and Miami being operated eight times a week and nonstop flights between Grand Cayman and Kingston, Jamaica being operated five times a week with both destinations being served with BAC One-Eleven jet aircraft.〔http://www.timetableimages.com, July 1, 1972 Cayman Airways system timetable〕 This same timetable also lists Douglas DC-3 nonstop service to both Cayman Brac and Little Cayman from Grand Cayman and also between Cayman Brac and Little Cayman with service being operated nine times a week in each direction on the three routes between the these island destinations. By the winter of 1973, Cayman Airways was operating stretched BAC One-Eleven series 500 aircraft on both of its jet routes and was operating seventeen flights a week between Grand Cayman and Miami as well as five flights a week between Grand Cayman and Kingston.〔http://www.timetableimages.com, December 1, 1973 through April 27, 1974 Cayman Airways system timetable 〕 The airline was also offering direct connecting jet service between Miami and Kingston via Grand Cayman at this time. In 1976, the airline had increased competition on the Grand Cayman-Miami route as Southern Airways was operating daily nonstop Douglas DC-9-10 jet service with LACSA continuing to serve the route as well with BAC One-Eleven series 500 flights operated four times a week.〔February 1, 1976 Official Airline Guide (OAG), Grand Cayman schedules〕
By the late 1970s, Cayman Airways had commenced its second nonstop route to the United States with service five times a week between Grand Cayman and Houston, Intercontinental Airport (IAH) being flown with the BAC One-Eleven series 500.〔http://www.timetableimages.com, December 15, 1979 Cayman Airways system timetable〕 In 1979, an additional BAC One-Eleven jet as well as a Hawker Siddeley 748 turboprop and a Britten-Norman Trislander STOL (short take off and landing) prop aircraft were purchased.
The airline then replaced their two BAC One-Eleven jets with Boeing 727-200 aircraft in 1982, strengthening the airline's regional and international capability, and also allowed for the introduction of first class service. Cayman Airways also operated a Douglas DC-8-52 jetliner and a leased Boeing 727-100 jet during the 1980s.〔http://www.airliners.net, photos of Grand Cayman DC-8-52 & B727-100 aircraft〕 These jets were eventually replaced with Boeing 737-200 and then with Boeing 737-300 aircraft. Boeing 737-400 jetliners were operated as well. At one time or another during the 1980s, Cayman Airways offered scheduled or charter service to Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Houston, Minneapolis, Newark, New York City, Philadelphia and St. Louis as well as Kingston and Montego Bay in Jamaica.
The airline also flew nonstop at one point between Miami and Grand Turk Island and Providenciales in the Turks & Caicos Islands with Boeing 727-200 and Boeing 737-200 jetliners.〔http://www.departedflights.com, Feb. 15, 1985 & Dec. 15, 1989 editions, Official Airline Guide (OAG), Miami-Grand Turk/Providenciales schedules〕 These were the only routes flown by the carrier that did not directly serve the Cayman Islands. Cayman Airlines has also operated jet service into Cayman Brac over the years with Boeing 727–200, Boeing 737–200 and Boeing 737-400 aircraft, including nonstop flights between Cayman Brac and Miami, and currently continues to do so with Boeing 737-300 jets.〔http://www.departedflights.com, February 15, 1985 & December 15, 1989 editions, Official Airline Guide (OAG), Miami-Cayman Brac schedules〕 Besides nonstop flights to several destinations in the U.S., the airline currently operates nonstop jet service between Grand Cayman and Havana, Cuba, Kingston, Jamaica, La Ceiba, Honduras and Montego Bay, Jamaica. Non-jet flights between Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman are currently operated with turboprop aircraft by Cayman Airways Express.
The airline struggled throughout the early 1990s; however, financial assistance from the Cayman Islands Government, financial re-structuring, newer, more modern aircraft and the addition of new destinations such as Chicago, Dallas/Ft. Worth (both served on a seasonal basis) and Havana, Cuba appear to have helped the airline.
