Cyprus Airways is continuing to pick up pace as the Summer begins in earnest, with a raft of destinations available from Cyprus that includes Moscow. The airline will be flying the Mos-cow route three times weekly, and twice per week to St. Petersburg.

A pioneer in the Cypriot travel industry, Cyprus Airways operates a 10-destination interna-tional network to Thessaloniki, Heraklion, Skiathos, Preveza, Prague, Moscow, Saint Peters-burg, Tel Aviv, Beirut and latest addition, Malta. Cyprus Airways has enjoyed a strong re-sponse to its summer schedule launch which was supported by a number of special promo-tions.

Recently Cyprus Airways was acquired by the SJC Group, a Maltese group with operations across Africa and the Middle East, incorporating a number of different activities including helicopter commercial flight operations, and helicopter maintenance from dedicated han-gars within Malta International Airport. The SJC Group maintains a fleet of private aircraft to provide emergency services in remote parts of the world. The company is also a leading provider of fire, safety and security services.

Cyprus Airways was awarded for its efforts to enrich local tourism during the last Cyprus Tourism Awards. In addition, Cyprus Airways has announced a zero-penalty fee for flight changes on basic fare tickets.

George Mavrocostas CEO of Cyprus Airways said: “We are delighted to be part of the tour-ism recovery in Cyprus and we look forward to a busy summer on the Moscow route. Our expanding network offers global passengers more travel options into and out of the EU, and reconnections to Greece, the Middle East and Malta."
