Airport Directory » Cyprus » Ercan » Ercan AirportErcan International Airport (IATA: ECN, ICAO: LCEN), (Turkish: Ercan Uluslararası Havalimanı or Greek: Διεθνές Aεροδρόμιο Τύμβου), is the principal airport of entry into the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
It is turn up east of the Cypriot capital town of Nicosia near the small town of Tymvou and it is not internationally recognized as a legal port of entry except by Turkey and the de facto Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Since 2006 the pattern which conditions that voyages are claimed to touch down at a Turkish airport before elongating to/from Ercan has been under treatment. There are programs to function non-stop voyages to the United Kingdom, Germany and Scandinavia.
In 2006 the Turkish authority set about treatments for a leading port, Famagusta, and an airport, Ercan, to be able to function direct connexions with the UK authority drawing it as a "eminent and originative offer"
Recent programmes have spring up to privatize Ercan airport as good as programmes to blow up the airport in say to increase capacity. Ercan Airport now has a 2.5 kilometer-long districting field and an apron with a capacity of 7 aircraft, and, although the landing track is long enough for big aeroplanes to bring down, it misses the length for take-offs. The programme is for the building of a new districting field, apron and depot construction, with the planned new apron duplicate the current aeroplane capacity.
