Cyprus Airways announces the obtainment of the Air Operator Certificate (AOC) from the Cypriot Department of Civil Aviation (DCA).

“Cyprus Airways has some of the best aviation professionals with vast experience at well-known European airlines. The Air Operator Certificate is a huge step forward for us, as it acknowledges that all our processes meet the requirements of European aviation authorities” said Natalia Popova, Cyprus Airways Chief Commercial Officer.

On March 4th 2017, the airline conducted its proving flight from Larnaca International Airport to Heraklion International Airport with Airbus A319, as part of the procedure to obtain the certificate. The management of Cyprus Airways express their appreciation to the Department of Civil Aviation and the Ministry of Transport, Communication, and Works for their collaboration.

“Our next step,” continued Mrs. Popova, “is to get the license for commercial flights, for which we have already submitted our application. At the same time, we are at the final stage of preparations for the commencement of our flights”.

Currently, Cyprus Airways is finalizing its schedule. The airline will soon launch its website http://www.cyprusairways.com/, where passengers will be able to buy air tickets and get all necessary information about the airline’s routes, schedule, fares, and additional services.
