Press Releases

Following the decrees published by the Government of Cyprus and the measures taken to prevent the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, the Passengers Survey, which provides data on tourist arrivals, revenue from tourism and the returns of residents of Cyprus from a trip abroad, was not conducted in April 2020. Due to this reason, the relevant press releases and corresponding tables will not be published.

Arrivals of Tourists and Revenue from Tourism

Among the measures taken, an entry ban in the Republic was imposed on several categories of persons, including tourists, as of 15/3/2020. As a result, during April 2020, there were no arrivals of tourists and hence no revenue from tourism.

Returns of Residents of Cyprus

According to estimates based on information provided by the Civil Aviation, a total of 4.000 residents of Cyprus returned from abroad in April 2020. The Civil Aviation data do not provide the possibility of a more detailed analysis.
