Thanks for the replies. Will just have to leave Larnaca at 3.30am to get a flight at 7am. :(

You could stay in Lefkoşa: that would be more convenient, wouldn't it?

Hi Claire,



That was what I was hoping someone might come up with a name of a hotel in Lefkosa, as then at least it would only take about 20mins to get to the airport.

There's an airport coach company (Kibhas) which leaves Girne at 4.50am which goes via Nicosia bus/coach station to Ercan arriving at 5.45. That's more than enough time for check-in for a 7am departure. Stay in a hotel near the bus station in Nicosia the day before and you should be okay.

Kibhas tel:- 0533 8707846 / 0533 8707848 or review their web site.

Correct me if I am wrong but, as it does not take more than an hour to drive from Larnaca to Ercan and as you are prepared to travel the 20 minutes from Lefkosa to Ercan, the saving you will make is only 40 minutes. Hardly seems worth the trouble and expense.

"as it does not take more than an hour to drive from Larnaca to Ercan "



Is that crossing over at Pyla or Nicosia?
