Flights to Cyprus

You can get one of the many flights to Cyprus from most airports in the UK and Ireland. There are a mixture of scheduled and holiday charter flights to Cyprus from different holiday companies and airlines operating into both Larnaca airport and Paphos airport. There are also flights into Ercan airport in the Turkish side however they are not as common.

The airport you pick will depend on the part of Cyprus you wish to visit unless you want a long transfer time from the airport. Another obvious consideration is the cost of the flight, which can vary depending on a few factors. If you wanted to stay in Ayia Napa one of the more popular resorts you would want a flight to Larnaca where the distance to the resort is around forty one kilometres. If you were to get a flight to Paphos and travel to Ayia Napa then you would have to travel approximately an extra one hundred and thirty kilometres to get there. So unless there is a massive price difference it is better to check which one of the flights to Cyprus is more suitable for you.

Depending on what type of flight is available the best time to book your flight to Cyprus is usually as early as possible for the scheduled airlines unless they have a special offer available. Charter flights can be booked last minute however you are then subject to market forces. If you are travelling in the peak summer months to Cyprus during the school holiday period, you will less likely to find a late deal and get a cheaper flight. If you get a flight to Cyprus at the start of June when there is no school holidays you may have a better chance of getting a cheap flight to Cyprus provided that there is still plenty of availability left.

There are direct flights to Cyprus from most UK airports however it is possible to fly via other European airports such as Frankfurt of Amsterdam and Athens. For some dates this can work out cheaper than some of the other flights available. Some of the holiday companies charge a lot for flights to Cyprus on certain dates as they wish to keep the seats to sell with accommodation as part of a package holiday to Cyprus rather than just a Cyprus flight.
