Cayman: CIAA Conducting a Full-Scale Emergency Exercise, 21 May 2024

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (16 May 2024) Please be advised that the Cayman Islands Airports Authority (CIAA) will be conducting a Full-Scale Emergency exercise at Owen Roberts International Airport on the evening of Tuesday, 21 May 2024.

The CIAA would like to inform the public that there will be a short interruption of traffic on the roads surrounding the airport and asks for your cooperation while the emergency services test their response times to the airport. Early morning traffic will not be impacted, and any disturbance to the public will be kept to a minimum.

To comply with International Standards, the CIAA stages a full-scale emergency exercise at both the Owen Roberts International Airport and the Charles Kirkconnell International Airport every two years in order to test the ability of airport staff and emergency response agencies to work together to form an organised response to save lives and limit damage to property.
