If you’re looking for a city that has charm and plenty of character, then look no further than Bangkok. It has come a long way since the 18th century, when it was just a small village on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Today it’s a vibrant metropolis that’s home to more than 8 million people, and is one of the most visited cities in the world.
Book a flight to Bangkok with Qatar Airways to discover Thailand’s spiritual, economic and cultural capital, a sensory-rich city where centuries-old Buddhist temples coexist alongside sprawling high-rises.
Flying from Larnaca
Located in eastern Cyprus, Larnaca International Airport is the larger of the island’s two main departure and arrival points. Popular with tourists and business travellers alike, it is located 2.5 miles southwest of the city, making it extremely convenient and reducing transfer times to resorts in the east of the island. Passengers flying from Larnaca with Qatar Airways will find this relatively small but very friendly airport to be extremely efficient, with all of the facilities you would expect from an international airport combined with a warm Cypriot welcome to make the start of your journey as pleasant as possible.
Transportation and parking
The easiest way to travel from Larnaca to the airport is by taxi. These are available 24 hours a day and the journey time is approximately 15 minutes. Allow an extra 10-15 minutes during peak travel times, especially at weekends. Shuttle services to and from the airport are provided by Kapnos Airport Shuttle and Limassol Airport Express, with mini-bus transport available, which is particularly useful if you are travelling in a larger party. The main car park and newly upgraded terminal car park area are located in front of the terminal building. There is capacity for up to 2,450 cars for both short and long-term stays
Arriving in Larnaca
Passengers flying from Larnaca with Qatar Airways depart from the main terminal. The terminal has recently undergone a series of upgrades and despite its compact size is very free flowing and easy to navigate. There are now 16 boarding bridges, 67 check in counters, 8 self check-in kiosks and 48 departure gates. Allow at least two hours before your flight is due to depart to check in and to clear security checks.
Facilities and amenities
Despite its relatively compact size for an international airport, Larnaca is well equipped with excellent facilities and amenities to make the start of your journey more comfortable. Recent upgrades mean that the public lounges are well appointed, spacious and comfortable and include a parent and baby changing room. Free Wi-Fi is available in designated areas, and a well stocked retail court sells accessories, Duty free, luxury goods and some local products. Food and drink vendors offer everything from local delicacies, tea and coffee through to more substantial meals.
