Cyprus Airways links up with Air UK for expanded regional service

CYPRUS Airways (CY), in collaboration with Air UK, is covering six more destinations to Britain thus offering better service to the island’s increasing number of travellers.

CY has signed a deal with Air UK offering connecting flights from Stanstead airport to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Aberdeen, Jersey and Guernsey.

The deal comes into effect on Monday June 22. Cypriot travellers will be able to fly to Stanstead with Cyprus Airways and from there continue to any of the other six destinations on an Air UK flight with minimum transit time. In the same manner, British travellers can reach Cyprus from these six airports without excess inconvenience.

CY flies to Stanstead airport every Tuesday and Friday, departing from Larnaca airport at 10.30am.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
