About the Nicosia–Larnaca Intercity Route
Going from Nicosia toward the south-east coast and Larnaca Airport, the Nicosia to Larnaca service is run by Intercity Buses along the A1/A2 motorway corridor. Many travellers chain this trip with the Larnaca Airport shuttle — coach to Larnaca, then short hop to LCA — as a budget alternative to a taxi. The coach calls at the Larnaca intercity stops in town, where you can change to district buses or the airport connection. The official Intercity Buses timetable lists the full Nicosia-Larnaca route at about 1 hr 15 min.
How Often Buses Run
The northbound and southbound timetables broadly mirror each other, with most services concentrated in daytime hours. If you are connecting to a flight, look at both this tracker and the Larnaca Airport tracker so you can confirm the airport hop is also running before you leave.
Tips for the Nicosia–Larnaca Bus
- 1For Larnaca Airport, change to the airport shuttle at the Larnaca intercity stops — the coach itself does not enter the terminal.
- 2Allow extra buffer if you have luggage and a tight check-in.
- 3Late-evening services are sparse — confirm the last departure before relying on a same-day flight return.
- 4For onward Ayia Napa or Protaras travel, connect at Larnaca rather than waiting for a direct service.
