Without a scan, I can only speculate. With luck, I'll say something wrong and an expert will jump in to provide the answer.
If the Censor Label has an "I.C." - usually added in pencil or pen, then it was censored at Bermuda. Otherwise it is likely a GB censor marking. Is there a "P.C. 90" at one corner of the label. Was there other censorship labels or markings?
Examiner 8805 is not listed in the DB of P.C. 90 labels used in GB and Bermuda, but obviously this one could simply not have been reported.
One possible route from there would be via Miama, FL, and FAM Route 22. If you are an APS member, you can find several articles by Ken Lawrence in their AP Journal from several years ago. That route went from Miami to South America to Africa and then eastward on to India and beyond. There would also be some split off routes from points along FAM 22 to travel to Cairo, Egypt.
An alternate to that route at this late date would be Miami to NYC and Clipper to Lisbon and then air to Cairo.
There may also have been a British direct route by air to London and then via Lisbon or somewhere to Cairo.
I have no information on Jamaica postal rates; perhaps a Commonwealth collector can jump in.
