How the US shutdown could affect Cayman travel
The US federal government shut down at midnight on 1 Oct. after lawmakers failed to agree on a budget, sparking concerns about air travel and the broader tourism industry. For Cayman, which depends heavily on travel to and from the United States, a prolonged standoff in Washington carries immediate weight.
Airline trade group Airlines for America, which represents carriers including United, Delta, American and Southwest, warned that the shutdown could slow the aviation system and reduce efficiency.
Local industry players say they are keeping a close eye on the shutdown’s impact.
