Shipping Tips



Ship In Advance

It is strongly recommended that you avoid last minute shipping. This will ensure that space is available and will let you avoid premiums.


Check Minimum Charges

Ask your agent for a listing of the various weight classes.


Talk To The Pros

Contact any of our Cargo offices and talk to our experts. Cayman Airways Cargo agents will recommend the most appropriate service.


Use Jiffy Service For Envelopes

For known shippers - this is the cheapest, quickest, most reliable and most convenient way to ship envelopes.


Complete The Necessary Shipping Forms

There are 2 simple forms, which must accompany your envelope or shipment, regardless of which service you choose. The first is the Shippers Letter of Instruction, which is required for General Cargo and Guaranteed Priority only. You can print the form off our web site and complete at your convenience. The second form is the Shippers Security Endorsement (SSE), which is required for all shipments. You can complete this brief form at the Cargo Office, and you must bring government issued identification with you at that time.


Bring 3 Copies Of Invoice

You'll need 3 copies of the commercial invoice that will accompany your shipment. Bring these with you to the Cargo Office. Ensure that you have the correct name, address and contact number on all invoices


Ship Items Unassembled When Possible

If you have light bulky items, mix them with heavy items so that you don't pay too much for the volume.


Save Your Air Waybill

The air waybill confirms that your goods have been accepted as an air cargo shipment. Also, make sure to state the declared value of your goods on the air waybill especially for valuable shipments.
