Fall in love with Aphrodite’s isle
Fly to Cyprus with British Airways and touchdown in Paphos, where pristine beaches stand alongside large-scale historical ruins.
Embrace Cypriot mythology with a visit to the goddess Aphrodite’s birthplace, Aphrodite’s Rock, before heading to Kato Paphos to explore the time-stamped UNESCO-listed Paphos Archaeological Park.
If you’re keen to experience ancient and modern traditions, unwind on the unspoilt shores of Finikoudes Beach, or visit traditional fishing villages like Lefkara and Kiti, then Larnaca is a must-visit. For an authentic taste of the island, sample late-night local dishes like meze platters and kleftiko – slow-cooked lamb – at Larnaca Municipal Market.
Ayia Napa’s vibrancy is fully charged by evening. Here waterfront bars offer sunset views and the opportunity to dance the night away before watching sunrise. Book your holiday to Cyprus now.

Cyprus flight FAQs
A flight from London to Cyprus takes around four hours and 35 minutes.
We fly to Paphos and Larnaca from London Heathrow and London Gatwick.
The most popular time to visit is during the spring and summer months. Book your flights for autumn or winter to enjoy mild weather and make the most of this year-round destination’s attractions and experiences but with fewer crowds.
Cyprus is warm and welcoming any time of year, but you’ll find the perfect weather for beach days and outdoor activities between May and October. For a quieter break, try visiting in the autumn and winter months when the temperatures are still high but you’ll be exploring with fewer crowds.
You can make a trip to Cyprus fit any budget. Enjoy delicious and inexpensive street food, like flaounes, a Cypriot pastry, and louvi, black peas simmered in lemon, garlic and oil, to save on eating out. You can also tick off lots of historical sites and attractions for free or for a small fee, including the Paphos Archaeological Park, where you can see Paphos Castle, and the beaches of Nissi and Fig Bay.
Once you touch down at Paphos International Airport, you’re only a 15-minute taxi drive from the city centre. The airport bus service is a cheap alternative and takes around 90 minutes.
Larnaca International Airport is also only a 15-minute taxi drive from the city centre. Again, the airport bus service is cheaper and takes around 50 minutes.
You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to see more of what Cyprus has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental.
With so much to see and do in Cyprus, a visit – or two – is a must for any traveller.
History buffs can enjoy sites like Tomb of the Kings, the iconic archaeological site, also known for its landmark House of Dionysos. Explore museums and art galleries that offer a step back in time, like Cyprus Museum and Leventis Municipal Museum, in Nicosia, the island’s capital. Then, walk among Roman ruins or swim in the waters of Aphrodite’s birthplace in the ancient city of Paphos.
Experience the island’s green side at Akama National Forest Park, where you can follow the Aphrodite and Adonis walking trails, finishing the day with a dip in the secluded Blue Lagoon. Larnaca Salt Lake is famous for its salt crystals, and here between November and March, you’ll see a flock of migratory pink flamingos.
You can book a hand baggage-only ticket or make the most of our generous baggage allowance. If you choose economy standard or one of our British Airways Holidays’ packages, each passenger can check in a bag weighing up to 23kg – in addition to a handbag, laptop case or other small bag. Families travelling in any cabin with younger children can also check in one car seat and one fully collapsible pushchair. Read more about baggage allowances for children.
If you’re flying in our business cabin, you can check in two bags weighing up to 32kg each. Read our baggage guide for full details.
Citizens of the UK and Ireland and EU passport holders do not need a visa to visit Cyprus. If you hold a passport from a country or territory outside of these areas, you may need to apply for a visa before you travel. You can find out more about visa requirements for all the countries we fly to at the IATA Travel Centre.
Discover outstanding service from the moment you book. Fly with just hand baggage and you can carry two bags free of charge. Choose our checked baggage option and you can travel with hand baggage and a 23kg bag checked into the hold, plus enjoy free seat selection 24 hours before you fly. On board you’ll find HEPA-filtered air, quality on-board catering, and a warm, uniquely British welcome.
Simply relax and let us take care of you, every step of the way.
