Frequently Asked Questions about Ercan Airport
Where is the new terminal of Ercan Airport located?
After the opening of the new terminal, many have this question. The new terminal is located on the opposite side of the old terminal relative to the runway. To avoid getting lost, we have prepared instructions on how to get to the airfield and how to leave the new terminal.

If you have a non-Russian bank card, it will be easiest to purchase tickets on airline websites. If you only have a Russian card, a search aggregator, such as Aviasales, can be helpful.
