Am I correct with the following information to call to Grand Cayman from the US?



Dial 011 - 1 - 345 - 7 digit phone number



I need to leave instructions for the in-laws on how to call us when we are away.



Thanks!

It actually all depends on how they are calling you. If they are using a cell phone they should contact their provider to get specific instructions, as it can vary from provider to provider - I actually had to have them enable my phone to call internationally before I could dial the caymans. If they are using a land line they should contact their long distance provider to ensure they will do it correctly.

And............. You can use Skype or Yahoo or Microsoft Instant Messenger and get lower rates. Voice calls computer-to-computer anywhere in the world are free. Computer to telephone very reasonable.

Skype is def the best way to go, yet as they are the in-laws they might not know how to use it wink I have also tried using phone cards from the states to phone the Caymans and it's also expensive. My suggestion if they can't use skype, speak for one minute and then phone them back using a rentable cell phone from Cable and Wireless, $0.35c per minute to N.America!!! easiest and most convenient, you can call from the beach, stingray city etc wherever!!!
