A water arch welcomed Cyprus Airways’ inaugural flight on Friday, which returned from St. Petersburg to Larnaca airport.
“Today marks a significant milestone for the local aviation sector and the country as a whole,” George Mavrocostas, Chief Operations Officer said. “We are extremely happy that Cyprus Airways is flying, and we would like to thank travellers for their great support.”
For the second phase of its launch, in the next few months Cyprus Airways will announce a revised and extended flight schedule to be implemented in March 2018.

EgyptAir Plane May Be Terrorism
The head of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has said the missing EgyptAir Flight MS804 was “in all likelihood" brought down by an act of terrorism.
The FSB's Alexander Bortnikov also revealed officers thwarted a "Paris-style" terror attack in Russia on the May Bank Holiday weekend.
Bortnikov, who was speaking in Minsk, Belarus, called on Russia's European partners to work together to identify those behind the downing of the plane that went missing as it flew from Paris to Cairo.
He did not say what evidence he had that the crash was terrorism-related.
EgyptAir flight MS804 went missing overnight with 66 people on board, including one Brit.
The plane took off from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport at 11.09pm on Wednesday and went missing at 2.45am on route to Cairo International.
The Greek Merchant Navy reported seeing a "flame in the sky" in the south Mediterranean and a rescue operation was launched.
Worried family and friends gathered in Paris and Cairo in the hope of finding out what happened to the flight.
Search teams have since discovered two bodies after debris was also found 230 miles south of the island of Crete, according to Greek defence sources.
Bortnikov also claimed Russian and Kazakh forces foiled a potential terror atrocity on May 6.
A statement on the FSB’s website states "a group of people from Central Asian countries linked to international terrorist organisations" had plotted an attack on public transport in Krasnoyarsk .
But officers swooped in and arrested the group after carrying out a “complex operational search.”
The security service is not releasing the identities of the people involved "in the interests of the investigation."
The potential terror atrocity was likened to the horrific attack in Paris last November when ISIS gunmen killed 130 people after opening fire in several public places in the French capital, including the Stade de France and the Bataclan theatre.
