Larnaca International Airport

Larnaca International Airport is about 4 km southwest of Larnaca city center, and the drive takes roughly 10 to 15 minutes. Bus 425 covers the same trip in about 15 to 20 minutes and stops near the Finikoudes seafront, which is the most useful stop for central hotels. Taxis wait outside the arrivals hall at all hours.

The airport is just outside the built-up center of Larnaca, on the coast southwest of town. It is close enough that the drive to the seafront takes only 10 to 15 minutes. The other main towns of Cyprus, including Nicosia, Limassol and Ayia Napa, are between 40 and 75 minutes away by road.

Larnaca airport has one passenger terminal, which opened in 2009 and handles every scheduled and charter flight. Arrivals are on the ground level and departures on the upper level, with check-in, shops and gates above. An older terminal building nearby is used only for VIP and private aircraft, so regular travelers do not need to change terminals.

Cyprus Airways, Aegean Airlines and Wizz Air run the largest networks from Larnaca, alongside easyJet, Jet2, TUI Airways, British Airways and Eurowings for European routes. Long-haul connections come through Middle East carriers such as Emirates, Qatar Airways, Gulf Air and Royal Jordanian. All flights use the single passenger terminal, and many UK and Nordic routes operate only in summer.

Yes. Taxis wait at the official rank outside the arrivals hall on the ground level and operate 24 hours a day. The ride to Larnaca city center takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Taxis also cover longer trips to Nicosia, Ayia Napa, Limassol and Paphos, though the drive to Paphos takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, so confirm the destination with the driver first.

Yes. Bus 425 runs from the airport to central Larnaca and on toward Dhekelia. Kapnos Airport Shuttle connects the airport with Nicosia, Ayia Napa and Protaras, plus some services to Paphos Airport, and the Limassol Airport Express runs direct to Limassol. All of these use fixed stops rather than hotel drop-offs, and night service is limited.

Bolt operates at Larnaca airport, and the app shows the designated collection point and the fare when you book, so you know where to walk after leaving arrivals. If you prefer a fixed arrangement, the official taxi rank is right outside the arrivals hall. Late at night, available Bolt cars can be fewer than during the day.

Cyprus is in the EU but not in the Schengen Area, so everyone clears Cypriot passport control. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens can enter with a passport or national ID card. Many other nationalities need a Cyprus visa, but holders of a valid multiple-entry Schengen visa can stay up to 90 days in any 180 days without one. Check your passport validity before you travel.

Ayia Napa is about 55 km east of the airport, roughly 40 to 55 minutes by road. Kapnos Airport Shuttle runs scheduled services to Ayia Napa and on to Protaras, stopping at fixed points in town. A taxi or pre-booked transfer goes straight to your hotel, which is simpler with luggage or on a late arrival when shuttle departures are less frequent.

Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, is about 50 km from Larnaca airport, roughly 40 to 50 minutes by car. Kapnos Airport Shuttle runs to its station on Kyrenia Avenue in Nicosia, which is open 24 hours. From there you can take a taxi to your hotel, or you can take a taxi or private transfer for the whole trip from the arrivals hall.

Limassol is about 50 to 75 minutes from the airport by road, and the Limassol Airport Express runs direct to its main stop at Agios Georgios Havouzas. Paphos is farther, about 1.5 to 2 hours by car, with some Kapnos shuttle services running to Paphos Airport. Taxis and private transfers go door to door to both cities.

Cyprus uses Eastern European Time, UTC+2, and switches to UTC+3 for daylight saving time from late March to late October. The currency is the euro, and you will find ATMs and currency exchange in the terminal. The climate is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters, so summer arrivals step out into strong heat.

Larnaca International Airport is operated by Hermes Airports, which also runs Paphos International Airport. Larnaca handled about 9.9 million passengers in 2025, up from about 8.7 million in 2024, making it the busiest airport in Cyprus. Summer is the peak season, so passport control and baggage claim can take longer between June and September.
