How is North Cyprus accessed from elsewhere within the country?
Due to the political history of the area, North Cyprus does not have official state-status. However, de facto recognition by the international community is steadily increasing, pioneered by private charter companies providing direct access from Turkey. Travelers destined to Turkey can choose from Greek or Turkish national airlines which reach several major areas, or take advantage of several car-ferry services. In addition, there are bus services providing service to and from England. One can fly to Larnaca, hire a car for 18 to 20 Cyp. Pounds and drive in an hour to Kyrenia. Third party insurance is available at the border for 10 Cyp pounds. The process usually takes 2 to 3 minutes.
