Airport and New Airlines
The old airports that we have all spent so much time in are to be replaced soon and construction is underway literally next door to the old buildings. Unlike many new buildings in Cyprus these are going up quickly because it is a provide and manage type contract where the Cyprus Government has leased the new airports to a new company. Hence they want them built and profitable quickly.
But will they be able to train the old staff to unload the bags a bit quicker, to get steps to planes as soon as they land and to stop smoking in the no smoking areas!
If they can get the turnaround quicker then the low-cost airlines will consider the route. It will never be a cheap as Spain, it is simply so much further.
