It happens in other countries. There called shuttle buses, they stop at various places and end up at a central destination.
As a Green Party voter I would have thought this would be on your agena ! |

You think a hire company is going to be stupid enough to let you rent a car for one day on their daily rate… from the airport... then have to pick it up in Pafos?  |
True, fair enough.
BUT, you still need to get back to the airport so I reckon taking a car for 3 days would be the cheaper option. |
“Hello, is that the car hire company?”
“Yes”
“I want to rent a car for three days please”
“Endaxi”
“I want you to deliver the car to the airport, I’m going to drive it to Pafos to save me getting a taxi, and then you can collect it from Pafos the next day.”
“Ummm…”
“Then two weeks later, you can deliver it back to Pafos so I can drive it back to the airport and you can collect it from there”
“Hello… hello… They hung up!”

Oh didums Xybadog.
Having to wait for stupid tourists. Try flying 1st Class and ask for help at arrivals. I can also arrange for you to be picked up by a chauffered Merc limo if you have the cash. |
Ask a simple question and you get some pr1ck thinking he knows how to string a few words together to pass as a reply!!!
Sarcasm is a beautiful thing, if you have the intelligence to pull it off Purdey.
Thanks to those who did give an adult reply though 
BTW Purdey, how much for the merc limo? |

Bugger off, he wouldn't pick you up, you have no class. Now bugger off and leave the poor 1st time tourists alone.
I think they charge £300 one way to Limassol, free drinkies and nibbles. I wouldn't waste my money. |

Sounds reasonable. Do they include lap dancers? (See, I have buckets of class!!) |

| I am sure they would fit some in for you. Really bad taste, I think I would rather catch a bus. |
