Winter tourism to rely primarily on scheduled flights minister says
October 14, 2021
Cyprus will be counting on scheduled flights for incoming tourism in the winter months, as uncertainty created by the Covid pandemic continues to discourage tour operators from chartering aircraft for tourism, Tourism Minister Savvas Perdios said on Thursday.
Speaking to the Cyprus News Agency from Munich, the minister said concerns over a potential surge in infections in the winter months prevented tour operators from taking the risk of organising chartered flights.
“Consequently, this winter and perhaps until March, the main traveller traffic to Cyprus will be through scheduled flights and not chartered,” Perdios said.
