My older brother comes to Cyprus at least once a month, I will always book his flights so I do know what Im talking about. He is in fact coming here on Jan 26th, EJ at £74.98 RETURN !!! Just as I, he does not need to bring luggage along, we have all we need here in Cyprus.
No not excessively at all.
They were charging pretty standard prices. Air fares to Athens were under 200.
The problem was bad management, not fare prices.A state is not supposed to run businesses, like airlines, telecommunications, and power companies.
Yes the State can run an airline and many do.
The bad management is from the interference from the Government over the years and the many political appointees with meson. At one stage there were 2500 employees for 12 aircraft when there should only be 600 odd.
