Taxis are readily available just outside the arrivals hall at a designated dispatch stand. Fares are not metered; instead, they are based on a government-regulated rate system by zone. The dispatcher will confirm the fare to your destination before you depart.
Multiple car rental agencies, including major international and local companies like Avis, Hertz, Budget, and Andy's, have service desks located directly within the arrivals hall. It is highly recommended to book in advance, especially during peak season. Note that driving in the Cayman Islands is on the left-hand side of the road.
The Cayman Islands' public bus system offers an affordable way to travel. While there is no bus stop directly at the terminal, the central bus depot is a short walk from the airport. Buses are minibuses that run on set routes across the island and can be flagged down. This is a budget-friendly option, though it may be less convenient for those with a lot of luggage.
On August 11, 2012 our group of 26 scuba divers were subjected to excessive screening. One employee at the screening area was a man in his sixties by the name of Dorrell Potter or Porter. He was very rude, aggressive, nasty, confrontational, and down right obnoxious. We were there around 2 PM local time connecting from Cayman Brac to continue on to Miami. I must say, he left a very sour taste in my mouth. If this is how Caymanians want to treat us, we can just go travel somewhere else. We had already gone through a complete search of our bags in Cayman Brac that I have never encountered anywhere else in all my travels. If they are trying to tell us we are not welcome, message noted. This one man harrassed half of our group and was annoying enough to make me think of never travelling there again.
Our base for now...great new job on the 737.
