Cayman Compass
The issue explained: Could a non-stop flight to London take off?
The possibility of extending the runway at Grand Cayman’s main airport to help improve airlift between the islands and Europe has come into focus once again amid recent challenges with the British Airways flight through Nassau.
Government talks with major airlines suggest an extended runway would bring with it the possibility of longer-haul flights. There are no guarantees and significant questions remain over whether a $30 million gamble to attract European tourists would pay off.
Tourism Minister Gary Rutty said that his ministry is investigating increasing airlift from all regions, but the new government has not yet revealed its position on proposed airport upgrades that could facilitate new options from Europe.
The investigation, however, should start with British Airways.
