Paphos International Airport
Paphos is the country's second largest airport, (after Larnaca airport). Paphos airport is commonly use by tourists on holiday in western Cyprus, providing access to popular resorts such as Coral Bay, Peyia Village, Limassol and Paphos itself.
In November 2008 Paphos received a new terminal building and also a new runway extension which allows it to handle even the largest aircraft (Airbus A321 and Boeing 747-400). Passenger growth is now expected to be between 3.5% and 4% a year.
The new airport is able to serve about 2.7 million passengers a year and includes: a new single storey passenger terminal with a floor space of 20,000m2, 24 check-in desks, six security screening positions, three baggage reclaim carousels and 800 car-park spaces.
The airport runway (11/29) has been extended from 2,700m to 3,100m allowing it to handle the larger aircraft. With the airport now being so popular with tourists visiting western Cyprus there is also a new four-lane highway being constructed. This will link the town of Paphos with the airport so that the current routes, the B6 and the E603, will not become so congested during the tourist season.
