Larnaca International Airport (LCA) is the main gateway to Cyprus and connects the island with Europe, the UK, Greece, Israel and the Gulf. The route map is best understood by region rather than by carrier, because individual airlines and seasonal routes come and go. Treat everything below as a guide to where Larnaca connects, then confirm the live schedule with the airline before you book.

Home carrier & the main markets
Cyprus Airways is based at Larnaca, alongside a broad mix of full-service and low-cost carriers. The busiest markets are the UK, Greece, Israel (a very short flight) and Central and Eastern Europe, with strong Gulf links through Dubai and Doha for onward connections worldwide. If you are travelling from a city without a direct route, expect to connect through a European or Gulf hub.
Seasonal & tips for connections
- Many leisure routes are seasonal, peaking in the summer (roughly May–October) — check that your dates are covered.
- Summer routes fill quickly at peak times, so book early.
- On two separate tickets (self-transfer), leave a generous buffer, as the first airline is not responsible for a missed onward flight.
