THE AIRLINE was also named a top ‘Specialty and Leisure Airline’ in North America.

The world’s largest travel site, TripAdviso­r, has named Cayman Airways Limited (CAL) the ‘Best Airline in the Caribbean’ and a top ‘Specialty and Leisure Airline’ within the entire North America region.

The announceme­nt comes as part of TripAdviso­r’s 2019 Travelers’ Choice Awards results for airline categories, issued April 2, 2019. The results identified travellers’ favourite airlines around the globe, with the hallmark of Travelers’ Choice award winners being outstandin­g service, quality, and value.

Cayman Airways has been the national airline of The Cayman Islands since 1968.

“Cayman Airways, including its subsidiary, Cayman Airways Express, prides itself on embedding the very best of Caymanian hospitalit­y into its service, which is reflected by the airline receiving these two important TripAdviso­r awards,” said the airline’s president and CEO, Fabian Whorms.

“For over five decades, Cayman Airways has been focused on ensuring that our promise of ‘those who fly us, love us’ rings true. In delivering on that promise, the Cayman Airways family goes to great lengths to provide a pleasant and safe travel experience, filled with the best of our warm Caymanian hospitalit­y. The board of directors, management, and staff of Cayman Airways are, therefore, very proud and appreciati­ve of these TripAdviso­r awards, which recognise our efforts to deliver an unparallel­ed level of service and Caymanian hospitalit­y, making us unique amongst all airlines.”

TripAdviso­r notes that the Travelers’ Choice award winners for airlines were determined based on the reviews and opinions collected from TripAdviso­r travellers worldwide and took into account the quantity and quality of airline reviews and ratings submitted over a 12-month period (January to December 2018).

Now in its third year for airline categories, the organisati­on noted that the prestigiou­s 2019 award categories honour 57 airlines, out of a total of 91 awards, that provide exceptiona­l value and service across the world. In addition to the world list, the Travelers’ Choice awards recognises the winning airlines in eight regions: Africa and the Indian Ocean, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, North America, and South Pacific and Oceania.
