New Yorkers, get ready to skip the snow and soak up the sun at Rum Point. Beginning December 20, 2025, Delta Air Lines will offer nonstop Saturday flights from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Grand Cayman (GCM)—just in time for the winter escape season.

Running through April 11, 2026, this seasonal service makes it easier than ever for travelers from the Northeast to trade chilly city streets for tranquil white-sand beaches. Best of all, the flight averages under four hours, getting you from NYC to Rum Point’s serene shores in one easy hop.

Delta Returns to JFK–Grand Cayman Route

This route marks Delta’s return to JFK–Grand Cayman service after more than a decade, reaffirming New York’s importance as a major gateway to the Cayman Islands.

“Delta’s renewed commitment signals growing demand for easy-access Caribbean getaways,” says Gary Hendricks-Dominguez, Deputy Director of International Marketing at the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism. “For Northeastern travelers looking for sun, sea, and world-class experiences, the Cayman Islands offer the perfect quick getaway.”

In addition to JFK, Delta is also reinstating nonstop flights from Detroit to Grand Cayman beginning the same day, December 20, giving even more travelers a direct path to paradise this winter.

Whether you’re planning a romantic retreat, a family beach holiday, or a relaxing solo recharge, Rum Point Resort offers the perfect escape with calm waters, fine dining, and a laid-back island atmosphere.
