Overview
- The NIC Platform offers a digital walk-through of the terminal, offices, duty-free areas, boarding gates, and jetways.
- Nicosia International Airport has had no commercial arrivals or departures since 1974 after the site became a frontline during the conflict.
- The perimeter sits inside a United Nations Protected Area within the island’s buffer zone, and on-site access remains tightly restricted for safety.
- UNFICYP maintains its headquarters at the airport, and helicopters still operate from part of the airfield.
- While three Cyprus Airways jets were flown out in 1977 by British Airways engineers, a skeletal Hawker Siddeley Trident still lies on the runway.
