Cyprus Airways announced on Tuesday that it has secured a license and landing slots to operate up to three weekly flights to the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
According to its announcement, flights will operate to and from Dubai International Airport (DXB).
It is noted that this new route will connect Cyprus with the Emirates, creating multiple connectivity options with the Middle East, the Far East and other global destinations.
“We are excited to announce today a major milestone in our plans to further connect Cyprus to the world. Opening flights to Dubai was high on our agenda and we worked very hard to secure rights and slots to run such services. The United Arab Emirates is another important gateway we are adding to our ever-growing network. This important addition is in line with our commitment and plans to better serve local communities, businesses and open up new tourism opportunities in Cyprus,” Cyprus Airways CEO, Paul Sies said.
