Ryanair’s decision to introduce new flights to Cyprus is indeed a milestone – I think it gives a vote of confidence to the aviation and tourism industries of Cyprus. I’m sure that over the next few years we will see an expansion of their operations here, and this will be a clear signal to other airlines to consider Cyprus.”
