Best flights to Cayman.

My daughter has just landed a job in Caymen :T
She needs to be there no later than 18th August, however her wedding (booked 2 years ago) is 15th August! So we have a 3 day window:eek:
They were leaning towards booking with BA (a direct flight) until the strike palaver began:mad:
any advice on the best deal for return flights to Cayman, we live in the North West but they are thinking that a london based flight may be a better deal, what do you think?

    Or book separately for £470.29 total (based on mid-market exchange rates at xe.com), at https://www.airberlin.com and https://www.caymanairways.com.

    You say return flights - are you going over there with her and then coming back? I don't really understand what you are after.

    Also, if you can cut it so fine as to fly on the 18th, it appears to be significantly cheaper than the flights posted above if you book direct with the airlines. I make it £357.

    Damn. I didn't notice the OP was after return flights. I just saw new job and thought one-way flight.

    As I recall, the Cayman Islands require you to have a return flight booked in order for a work permit to be granted.

    By the way - isn't August hurricane season and thus dead season there? What is the job?

    They are (they're)
    sitting on the floor.
    Their
    books are lying on the floor.
    The books are sitting just there on the floor.

    You're right they need return flights for the visa.
    She's a teacher hence having to be there mid August so that she can find somewhere to live before staring work.
