“We are pleased to further strengthen our partnership with AirlinePros as we expand our reach in the Brazilian market. As Cayman’s national airline, Cayman Airways is proud to represent the spirit, culture and hospitality of our islands. We look forward to welcoming more Brazilian travellers to experience our beautiful islands, and the warmth that defines both our destination and our airline.”
Building on a successful collaboration in the UK, Canada, and Panama, Cayman Airways Limited (CAL) has expanded its global partnership with AirlinePros International, appointing the firm as its representative in Brazil.
The move reflects a shared focus on strengthening the airline’s commercial presence in Brazil and promoting convenient access to the Cayman Islands via Panama – one of Latin America’s fastest-growing outbound travel markets.
Under the agreement, AirlinePros will lead sales, marketing, and trade engagement across Brazil, working with travel agencies, tour operators, corporate buyers, and group specialists nationwide. The appointment follows CAL’s entry into the Billing and Settlement Plan (BSP) in Brazil, enabling local ticketing through major Global Distribution Systems (GDS) and making it easier for Brazilian travelers to book travel to the Cayman Islands and the wider Caribbean.

“Our focus is on practical support that helps agencies close more sales. That means clear fare availability in the GDS, seamless BSP settlement, responsive helpdesk service, and targeted training that turns product knowledge into revenue. Together with Cayman Airways, we intend to build sustainable growth across leisure, premium FIT, corporate, and niche segments such as diving and soft luxury."
Together, Cayman Airways and AirlinePros will focus on building brand awareness and driving demand through coordinated sales, distribution, and marketing initiatives, including support for group travel, meetings and events (MICE), and trade education. The partnership will also highlight the Cayman Islands as a premier Caribbean destination, while positioning Cayman Airways as the top airline for travel to the islands.
“This partnership marks an exciting new chapter for Cayman Airways in Brazil,” said Altamiro Medici, Regional Managing Partner of AirlinePros Brazil. “Brazil’s travel trade is sophisticated and opportunity-rich. Our mission is to make Cayman Airways easy to sell – simplifying access in Portuguese, accelerating group and series quotes, and partnering closely with agencies to convert demand into bookings.”

Most recently, the team represented the airline at Expo Turismo in Panama, engaging with tour operators, travel agencies, MICE planners, and corporate buyers interested in travel to the Cayman Islands via Panama.
