The Legal Airports in Cyprus

There are two legal airports in Cyprus…

  1. Larnaca International Airport (LCA) – the largest airport on the island and
  2. Paphos (Pafos) International Airport (PFO)

In order to enter the island legally you have to land either in Larnaca airport or Paphos airport…

…or arrive in Limassol port, Larnaca port or Paphos port. 

There is no airport in Limassol, Ayia Napa, Protaras or Nicosia. Only Paphos and Larnaca have legal airports on the island – as mentioned above.
