Cyprus will restart flights only to and from the countries where the authorities were able to curb the spread of coronavirus infection and where preventive measures are being taken, as per the Deputy Minister of Tourism, Savvas Perdios.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nikos Christodoulides intends to hold a video conference with his colleagues from EU countries to develop a unified strategy based on recommendations made by Brussels.
Cyprus reportedly intends to resume traffic with Scandinavian countries, Central Europe and Asia, such as Finland; Norway; Sweden; Austria; Germany; France; South Korea; China; Japan; Singapore.
Flights from the UK and Russia are still banned due to the growing number of Covid-19 cases in those countries.
Tourism occupies a dominant position in the Cyprus economy. This sector employs the bulk of the island's population.
