Flights To and From Cyprus – Staying Connected

One of the many advantages of owning a property in Cyprus is how well connected the island is to the UK, Europe and an increasing number of international destinations.

Whether you are travelling to Cyprus for a holiday, visiting your second home, coming to view properties or planning a permanent move, there is a wide choice of scheduled and seasonal flights throughout the year.

Cyprus is served by two international airports – Paphos International Airport and Larnaca International Airport – both offering direct connections to numerous European destinations.

Paphos International Airport

For anyone owning or considering buying property in Paphos, Aphrodite Hills, Secret Valley, Pissouri, Polis or the surrounding areas, Paphos International Airport is particularly convenient.

The airport sits approximately 15 km from Paphos itself and provides easy access to the western and south-western areas of Cyprus.

For properties around Aphrodite Hills and Secret Valley, the airport is particularly close, while Pissouri is also within comfortable driving distance.

This accessibility is an important consideration for second-home owners. Being able to arrive at Paphos Airport and reach your Cyprus home relatively quickly makes spontaneous visits, long weekends and regular trips considerably easier.

Paphos currently has direct connections with the UK, Greece, Poland, Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Italy, Ireland, France and several other European countries, although routes and frequencies vary throughout the year.

Larnaca International Airport

Larnaca is Cyprus’s other major international airport and provides an even broader range of connections.

It is particularly convenient for Larnaca, Nicosia, Ayia Napa and the eastern side of the island, but it is also readily accessible from Limassol via the motorway.

For homeowners around Limassol, having access to both airports can be a considerable advantage. Depending on your destination and preferred airline, you can compare flights from both Paphos and Larnaca.

Larnaca offers connections across Europe as well as destinations in the Middle East and beyond. Recent schedules have included direct services to countries including the UK, Greece, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Poland and the UAE, amongst many others.

Cyprus’s international connectivity also continues to develop, with new routes being introduced. In 2026, for example, new direct Air Astana services connected Larnaca with Astana and Almaty in Kazakhstan, while Discover Airlines introduced services linking Larnaca with Frankfurt and Munich.

Flying Between Cyprus And The UK

The UK remains particularly well connected with Cyprus.

Depending upon the season and departure airport, direct flights are available from a number of UK cities, making Cyprus an extremely practical destination for British holidaymakers and property owners.

Airlines currently serving UK routes to Cyprus include British Airways, easyJet, Jet2, Ryanair and Wizz Air, although individual routes and schedules vary between Paphos and Larnaca and according to the season.

For second-home owners, this is one of Cyprus’s greatest attractions. You can have all the benefits of owning a Mediterranean home without feeling disconnected from family, friends or business interests back in the UK.

Easy Access From Europe

Cyprus is also extremely accessible from mainland Europe.

Direct services connect the island with major cities and holiday destinations across Greece, Germany, Poland, Italy, France, Austria, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Scandinavia, Central Europe and Eastern Europe.

This international accessibility has helped make Cyprus attractive to property buyers of many different nationalities, as well as families whose members may be spread across several countries.

Travelling To Your Cyprus Property

When deciding where to buy in Cyprus, airport accessibility is worth considering alongside beaches, schools, shops, restaurants and other amenities.

This is one of the reasons the area between Paphos and Limassol is so appealing.

Aphrodite Hills, Secret Valley and Pissouri all offer excellent access to the A6 motorway, making Paphos Airport particularly convenient while also providing straightforward connections towards Limassol and Larnaca.

For owners who travel frequently, this can make a considerable difference to how often they actually use their Cyprus property.

Airport Facilities And Getting Around

Both international airports offer car rental, taxis, parking, food and drink outlets and passenger services. Hermes Airports also provides live arrivals and departures, flight schedules and airline information online.

Most overseas property owners choose to have access to a car while in Cyprus, particularly if their property is outside one of the main town centres. Cyprus drives on the left, which makes driving particularly familiar for visitors from the UK.

The motorway network provides straightforward connections between the major cities and airports, with Paphos, Limassol, Larnaca and Nicosia all easily accessible by road.

Check Your Flights Before Travelling

Flight routes and frequencies can change considerably between summer and winter, and airlines regularly introduce new destinations or adjust their schedules.

Rather than relying on an old list of routes, we recommend checking directly with the airline or Hermes Airports, which operates Cyprus’s two international airports and provides current flight schedules and live flight information.

Owning A Home In Cyprus

For many international buyers, accessibility is an important part of choosing a second home overseas.

Cyprus offers the Mediterranean lifestyle, beautiful beaches, golf courses, countryside and sunshine, while remaining well connected to the UK and the rest of Europe.

At Aphrodite Property Sales, we specialise in property across the Paphos and Limassol districts, including Aphrodite Hills, Secret Valley, Pissouri and the surrounding areas.

Whether you are looking for a permanent residence, holiday home or somewhere you can simply escape to whenever your diary allows, Cyprus’s excellent flight connections make owning a home here that little bit easier.

After all, your home in the Mediterranean is only a flight away.
