API for Cayman islands?!?
Today I bought return tickets with the following itenerary: YUL-YYZ-GCM. Now if I look at the online reservation it asks for the "Advance passenger information" for all passengers in the ticket.
I though that this was the case only for travel to the US. In fact when I open the API window it asks for a US address. Do I have to provide the information, or is this just a glitch in the AC reservation system.
Thanks
PS Booked in L with 50% status miles. H class was twice as expencive. M even more.

Since Canada also requires API, the info requested is likely applicable to your return flight.

Or could one just say, "in transit", when filling out this section?

"If you are transferring to another flight in the U.S. that goes outside the U.S. and your onward flight leaves within 8 hours of your arrival, you need to provide your flight number and destination."
It doesn't say what to do if you're overflying--makes sense to just leave it blank.
