Flight disruption due to Greek strike

Twenty-four flights to and from Larnaca and Paphos airports are expected to be affected by the Greek air controllers’ 24-hour strike starting at midnight Wednesday.

The strike will affect nine arrivals and nine departures at Larnaca airport and three inbound and three outbound flights at Paphos.

“All flights in both airports are either cancelled or rescheduled. This would either mean a delay or bringing the time forward,” airport operator Hermes spokesman Adamos Aspris said.

Aspris urged travellers to be in touch with the airlines and agents to avoid any inconvenience.

 

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.
