The furthest of the four, and further than the capital

People book Ayia Napa expecting the airport to be nearby because Cyprus is a small island. It is not: fifty-five kilometres, which is four kilometres more than the run inland to Nicosia and only twelve less than the one west to Limassol. The A3 makes it quick rather than short, and quick is not the same thing when a flight lands at midnight.

Where the two engines stop agreeing

Our routing engines put the distance at 55.03 and 55.04 kilometres, ten metres apart, and then differ by nearly eight minutes on how long it takes. That gap is not about the road, because they agree on the road to within ten metres. It is two different assumptions about motorway speed, and the honest response is a range wide enough to hold both rather than a single figure that quietly picks one.

Two suppliers, four vehicle sizes

The lead product prices by vehicle rather than by place: 70 euros up to three, 100 up to seven, 140 up to ten, 160 up to fourteen. A second operator lists 159 for up to fifteen, which lands on the same shape at the top end. Options priced by vehicle rather than by destination are what makes a figure attributable to one journey, and it is why this cluster could be built when the Canary Islands could not.
