Award winning low fares airline Monarch is to launch scheduled flights from Cyprus to London as the airline expands its network to the Eastern Mediterranean. The introduction of the four times per week service from Larnaca to London Luton will be the first low-cost scheduled flights to the UK from Cyprus, offering travellers the flexibility and low fares, not currently available through high fare flag carriers or on charter services.
Monarch's new Larnaca service will commence on Monday 26 March 2007 with fares from CYŁ31 one way excluding taxes. Seats are on sale, so book now for our lowest fares.
Commenting on the introduction of services from Cyprus, managing director of Monarch's scheduled services, Tim Jeans said, "We are delighted to be the first low fares airline to launch scheduled services from the Eastern Mediterranean, a market that has historically been dominated by the flag carriers and charter services.
"Cyprus Airways and British Airways have operated a high fares cartel from Cyprus for decades which we'll break with our widely available, flexible low fares. Our new service will be warmly welcomed not just by the growing holiday and overseas property markets in Cyprus, but the 150,000 strong Greek-Cypriot community in London, who've been deprived of choice and low fares until now.
"Monarch's onboard service is also perfectly placed to provide an ideal level of service for the four and a half hour flight time, with extra legroom seating, free inflight entertainment - including full length feature films and the provision of hot and cold food all available."
Flights from Larnaca will operate on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday using Airbus A321 aircraft with 213 seats.
