In order to meet growing demand, the airline also announced it will increase frequencies on its most popular routes. Flights to Athens have effectively been increased to double daily, Beirut is being served with a daily service, whilst flights to Tel-Aviv increased to six weekly services.
Paul Sies, CEO, Cyprus Airways, stated, “Following this successful launch and increasing demand, an additional weekly flight to Yerevan was inevitable. The third weekly service to Armenia shows our intent to grow and expand our international network further. As we continue to grow the connectivity between Cyprus and key near-by destinations, we are assisting our Island socioeconomically and culturally, whilst boosting tourism demand.”
Yerevan is the capital and largest city of Armenia, as well as one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities. Situated along the Hrazdan River, it is the administrative, cultural, and industrial center of the country. The city has been built in a very mountainous region, with Mount Ararat—the highest peak in all of Armenia—standing tall on its northern horizon.
