Baby Changing Rooms
Cyprus airports offer unisex rooms equipped with changing tables, allowing you to change your child's diaper in privacy and with proper hygiene. Such rooms are available in all restroom areas throughout the airport.
Breastfeeding Rooms
If you are breastfeeding, you may need a quiet place for feeding. Some baby changing rooms in Cyprus airports are equipped with seating and outlets for breast pumps.

Traveling with a Stroller
Each airline has its own procedures for handling strollers for passengers. We recommend contacting your airline in advance or informing a staff member during check-in.
Usually, a tag is attached to the stroller, and passengers can take it up to the aircraft door, where staff will store it in the baggage hold.
Upon arrival, the stroller may be unloaded before the main luggage, awaiting you at the aircraft door, or (more commonly) it will be unloaded with other baggage. Look for it on the baggage carousel or in the oversized baggage area.
Express Access for Children
As children may lack patience, waiting in line with them can be challenging! If you are a family with young children traveling through Larnaca Airport, you can use the "Express Access" route to reduce waiting time.
Express lane tickets can be purchased in the following ways:
- Through the Hermes online booking portal. Purchase is available up to 24 hours before flight departure.
- At the airport, using two Express Lane machines located at the entrance to the “Express Lane” route in the check-in area, or at the machine located after the electronic boarding pass readers, just before passport control.
This option is currently only available at Larnaca Airport.
Children's Play Areas
These are zones where boys and girls can play peacefully, without getting bored while waiting for their flight, in the comfort of the commercial area. Playrooms are located near the boarding gates, and small play complexes can also be found throughout the airports.
