TRAVEL: Cyprus Airways launches summer 2019 ticket sales

Cyprus Airways has launched ticket sales for summer 2019 from Larnaca to destinations in Europe and the Middle East.

Flights to Athens, Thessaloniki, Prague, Bratislava, Kosice, Tel Aviv and Beirut are available for book. The company will soon announce ticket sales for flights to other destinations.

 “We continually monitor our route network and we believe that these destinations will be a popular choice for local travellers, while at the same time contribute in the increase of tourists visiting Cyprus,” said Natalia Popova, Chief Commercial Officer of Cyprus Airways.

Cyprus Airways offers two categories of fares, Basic and Flex. The Flex offers additional services, such as 23kg baggage allowance, seat selection, giving customers the option to customize their travel experience.

A new baggage policy is in place for customers who select basic fares, effective from 31 March 2019.

Basic fare ticket holders will be allowed to check-in their 10kg wheel bag in order to have a more comfortable journey without having to carry their bag on the aircraft. 

All passengers are allowed a small carry-on bag (hand-bag, laptop or backpack) which they can place under the seat in front of them. 

This new baggage policy is aimed at reducing boarding delays.

In July 2016, Charlie Airlines Ltd, a Cyprus registered company, won a tender for the right to use the trademark Cyprus Airways for a decade. The company launched flights in June 2017.

Cyprus Airways operates flights to Europe, Russia and Middle East.

All Cyprus Airways flights operate on modern Airbus A319 aircraft with a capacity of 144 Economy Class seats.
