For many years travellers have been longing for direct flights to north Cyprus. The dream of being able to fly directly to the Northern airport Ercan, has always been a vision for many travellers looking for convenience and bringing down their travelling time to the island.
Since late 2003 the borders of North Cyprus and Southern Cyprus opened, and so it led to a natural flow of people travelling from North Cyprus and vice versa. People now visit both sides for multiple days, take holidays, or even day trips for shopping or visiting beaches and attractions. Another benefit of the borders opening was the fact travellers could use Larnaca airport in the South to fly direct from the UK and then travel onward to their desired location in North Cyprus. The direct flight holiday route for Northern Cyprus holidays was born. People now flock to Larnaca airport and travel from their local airport in the UK saving on convenience in the UK, and also wiping off 1/3 of flying time when compared to he flights to Ercan airport.
British Airways Larnaca Flights

There is a choice of 17 UK airports, and transfers to Famagusta are only 35minutes, while Kyrenia transfers are equally convenience at 1hour 15 minutes.

So have travellers abandoned Ercan airport you might ask… well not quite. A few years ago the collapse of the national airline Cyprus Turkish Airlines meant that there are now only a couple of private carriers flying to Ercan. Flights are mainly from Stansted and one flight from Manchester also exists. The prices have risen over the years, with a few carriers entering the market such as AtlasJet Airlines. Currently scheduled flights to Ercan airport are operated by Pegasus Airlines and Turkish Airlines only. All airlines must touch down in Turkey, with Pegasus Airlines only requiring a touch down on many of their flights and Turkish Airlines requiring you to change aircraft. Flights to Ercan airport are a minimum of 6 hours including the touch downs, while transfers to Kyrenia and Famagusta are approximately 45 minutes.

What does that mean for travellers? Well many people are opting for non-stop direct flights to Larnaca airport for their North Cyprus holidays. The sheer fact of lack of capacity for flights in the North is driving up prices, and the convenience factor of shorter and local flights with reputable carriers such as British Airways is an easy decision for many travellers.

Going back to when the borders opened, Direct Traveller was the first UK tour operator to offer the direct flight holiday services to travellers. The sheer demand for these holidays along with investment in technology offering the first dynamic packaging holiday experience to north Cyprus meant fast growth and saw Direct Traveller enter the “Sunday Times Fast Track league tables” in 2010 as “#77 fastest growing private company in the UK”, among 2 million private companies. So which option is better for travellers? Well that is for holiday makers to decide. Managing Director of Direct Traveller, Ramadan Ozdemir says: “Even though Direct Traveller pioneered the direct flight route for North Cyprus holidays, we do also offer Ercan airport for our travellers. Our commitment is for flexibility and convenience, along with a high service quality. Both options have their benefits, and with over 110 flights to choose from that can only be decided by our travellers and their requirements”
