Get ready to pack your bags! After spotting cheap JetBlue Mint fares to the Caribbean earlier today, we're now seeing coach flights to the Cayman Islands on sale for as low as $212 round-trip. You can find these deals out of cities like Boston (BOS), New York (LGA/JFK), Miami (MIA) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL) and can travel from September 2019 through June 2020.

The low fares are being offered by American Airlines, Cayman Airways and JetBlue, but if you have a choice of carriers, you might want to avoid American as most of its lowest fares are for basic economy, which doesn't let you select your seat, get an upgrade or earn elite qualifying credits as usual. If you do get stuck with a basic economy ticket, you can combat some of the negative aspects of basic economy with a cobranded credit card.

To search for these fares, head to Google Flights and enter your origin and destination cities. Scroll through the calendar function to find dates and prices that work for you. Finally, click through to book directly with the airline, through an OTA like Priceline or plug those dates into the Ultimate Rewards travel portal.
