The growth of the international airport in Paphos has made the resort much more accessible than it once was. It also reflects the growth in tourist numbers that has been witnessed in the region in recent years.
If you live in the UK then it would be very surprising if you didn’t know someone who’s been to Cyprus. That’s because the island has taken an increasingly large share of income from British travellers.
Where once we looked to take our summer holidays in Spain or Greece, it’s clear that many of us are now seeking summer sun in Cyprus and in other alternative locations.
These changes have brought both benefits and challenges to different regions within Europe. An increase in tourist numbers almost inevitably means an increase in income for the area, but it can cause problems if the infrastructure is not up to scratch.
The Cypriots have been keen to develop Paphos International Airport in response to the increasing number of visitors. While many flock to Ayia Napa and Limassol, the growth in Paphos meant that extra capacity was needed.
As a result, Paphos is now able to boast a modern airport that is ideal for those looking to stay in the nearby resort, located on the western edge of this Mediterranean island.
There are a number of airlines offering cheap flights direct from the UK, including British Airways. That means that there are some good deals to be found if you are willing to book your accommodation separately.
Alternatively, you can opt for a package holiday to Paphos. These can also offer excellent value for money, particularly if you’re able to purchase one at a reduced price.
Facilities are generally excellent throughout Cyprus – this has become a popular holiday destination thanks to those facilities, as well as the wonderful climate.
