Larnaca Airport

✅ Trip Verified | Worst airport experience of recent year. Enormous and totally disorganised queues at both baggage drop, security and customs. No separation of EU and non-EU and then sudden changes to the queue. Very few custom booths or security stations opened. Food and drink was massively overpriced. 4 euro for a bottle of water.

✅ Trip Verified | This airport does not recognise hidden disabilities, even when provided with a medical letter they asked me to split from my group of only 3 of us. She did not recognise the hidden disabilities sunflower lanyard and made a scene at the front of the passport scanning area after we had scanned the boarding cards in at 2:50pm This was so rude to me as I had the necessary documents and does not help an already stressful situation for someone with adhd and autism. I recommend getting your entire airport staff all onboard with the hidden disabilities sunflower and what it is.

✅ Trip Verified | A modern, clean and tidy airport, however with limited seats for those waiting to check in, excellent signs in greek and english, probably the most expensive bottled water, but cheap buys on other items especially wines and spirits. No delay in going thru ID or security checks, and there was temp reading plus obligation for a mask in entering the terminal. Some youngsters removed their masks but the police intervened . All in all the airport was clean and easy however, what I did not like was that most public airline announcements have nothing in greek, and local passengers were asking what the announcement about. Is it so difficult to use the local language? Airport wi fi was on and off, simply, miserable.

✅ Trip Verified | The Disability Service at Larnaca Airport is shambolic. When met on arrival, the member of staff told us that it is very complicated and time-consuming to get the lift, could my mother not walk. The officer neither helped my disabled mother nor me with the bags and stuffed my mother into the regular bus where nobody offered her a seat. I then had to insist to get help on the way out of the airport. On the return flight we were unfortunately met my the same officer, who followed the same minimal effort approach. only thanks to a member of staff from Laudamotion did we get a lift, but to the wrong end of the plane so that my mother had to walk the full length of the plane. The laissez-faire attitude of the disability service members of staff at Larnaca Airport is shocking. I hope you will do something about this.

Not Verified | A fine welcoming airport with moving belts - walkways - for passengers, an excellent shopping centre however with sales staff that quite a few of them inexplicably do not speak the local greek language. Neither is there any menu in the local language at food galleries and restaurants. Long queues at security check and despite displays for separate EU pax this is more of joke, lines are a mixture of everything EU or non EU, and what is worst are the constant public announcements in every language you can think of, so loud they can be heard in Beirut just like a train station in Pakistan or Cairo. As I said, a fine modern airport, only if they take care of announcements - less volume - and what is worse, the unbelievably expensive price of bottled water. Plain bottled water, not french perfume.

Not Verified | I travelled for 2 days from China. I had an accident leaving me with a broken femur and wrist fracture. I received extremely good help from the ambulance service team from aircraft to vehicle which was efficient and professional. Thank you.

Not Verified | This has to be the dirtiest, foul smelling, poorly maintained airports in Europe. It has seating I would not use because it was so grubby and carpets that were soiled and smelt. It was like something from a third world country.

✅ Trip Verified | My last year's review on this jungle airport was mainly about the constant public announcements in arabic, russian, english, you name it and probably 5% in the local language which is greek. This time, things were far worse, announcements as loud as one can stand, one after the other causing chaos in that you hear something which you don't understand. A train station in Karachi works better. Queuing lines unbelievable and only two officers to check passports, of course no respect for instructions for EU citizens, go as you please! Very very strict security check / prices for bottled water beyond any consideration as expensive as rare french perfume and the government totally ignores complaints about high prices at this airport, not only for water but for food and beverages. Though Cyprus is very cheap as a destination this airport is the sad exception. My flight was delayed, gate 45 the whole carpeted floor was very filthy with coffee or beer stains etc not only was everything filthy but also junk paper here and there, nobody came to clean the place, and to get into the toilet was a real challenge. Such a brand new airport practically totally disorganised, neglected, the carpet on the floor is more of a mess, ever so expensive goodies and nobody reads passengers negative comments. Lastly, the staff in most cases is not local for inexplicable reasons but mainly foreigners from ex soviet with minor knowledge and experience thus giving the impression you are in a neglected third country or ex soviet city.

Not Verified | My uncle recently travelled from UK to Cyprus. After collecting his luggage and waiting for transfer outside airport his luggage was stolen. People please be aware as four other peoples luggage was stolen at same time which was reported to police. After speaking to people he was told this had been a regular occurrence, airport security need to make people aware and take appropriate action to ensure this does not happen.

❎ Not Verified | This looks a nice shiny new airport but don’t be fooled. Even though they are reasonably efficient at checking bags in it all goes wrong once through passport control. The prices for food and drink put them to shame. It is daylight robbery. Also, there are no free water points. Local shops have the big water bottle dispensers in Pernera, yet this airport can’t achieve this simple requirement which is normal in civilised countries. One of the airport officials said it is because all water on the island comes from the sea! Well, that isn’t really an answer is it, more of an “I’m busy comment”. The air conditioning appears to be switched off or very poor at keeping the airport cool at midnight! All in all, it’s poor on a qualitative scale. Given a choice, you wouldn’t use it.
