Getting to Cyprus

• Flights from Europe
• Flights from Middle East
• Flights from Far East
• Travelling from the airport

Getting to Cyprus is easier than ever. More than 33 airlines, including Cyprus Airways and Eurocypria, operate scheduled flights from and to Larnaca International Airport (5km from Larnaca town centre) and Pafos International Airport (15 km east of Pafos town).
As the crossroads of the Eastern Mediterranean, Cyprus can also be a great component of a Middle East odyssey that combines a visit to the island with Israel, Egypt or nearby Greek islands such as Rhodes. Short cruises to these destinations are a popular option for many visitors to Cyprus.
