A Journey from the North to the Island of Aphrodite
The route from Oslo to Larnaca is a classic favorite for Norwegian travelers seeking guaranteed sunshine, crystal-clear waters, and rich history. Cyprus offers one of the longest swimming seasons in the Mediterranean, making it the perfect refuge from the unpredictable Nordic weather. At Ready2Go, we are your dedicated local partner for this journey. Whether you are a family heading to the sandy shores of Protaras, a couple seeking the vibrant nightlife of Ayia Napa, or a history buff exploring ancient Kition, we provide the secure, locally-grounded booking service you need to travel to Cyprus with confidence.
Why Choose Ready2Go for Your Trip to Cyprus?
Cyprus is a high-demand destination, particularly during the Norwegian summer holidays and autumn school breaks. Navigating the mix of charter seats and scheduled flights on international sites can be confusing. Ready2Go offers a distinct advantage: we are a Norwegian travel agency that prioritizes your security and simplifies the process.

- Intelligent Routing: The route from Oslo to Larnaca is served by seasonal direct flights and efficient connections via major European hubs year-round. Our platform filters for the most logical itineraries. We prioritize direct options to maximize your beach time, ensuring you arrive in Larnaca ready to swim rather than exhausted from transit.
- Transparent Pricing: We believe in honest communication. The price you see at the start is the price you pay. We strip away the hidden fees and confusing add-ons often associated with holiday travel, offering a straightforward booking experience that lets you budget for your Halloumi dinners without stress.
The Journey: Oslo (OSL) to Larnaca (LCA)
Connecting the fjords to the Eastern Mediterranean is a journey of anticipation.
- Departure from Gardermoen: Your trip begins at Oslo Airport (OSL). As a world-class facility, OSL ensures a smooth start. We recommend utilizing the Flytoget airport express for a punctual arrival. Enjoy the duty-free shopping—picking up high-SPF sunscreen is essential—before boarding your flight south.
- Flight Duration: A direct flight (when available seasonally) typically takes approximately 4 hours and 45 minutes. It is a comfortable medium-haul journey crossing the European continent and the Mediterranean Sea.
- Arrival in Larnaca: You will land at Larnaca International Airport (LCA), the primary gateway to the Republic of Cyprus. It is a modern, efficient airport located right on the coast. The transfer to Larnaca city takes just 15 minutes, while the major resorts of Ayia Napa and Protaras are about a 45-minute drive away.
Destination: Larnaca and Beyond
Larnaca is the gateway to an island of staggering beauty and variety.
- The City of Larnaca
Often overlooked as just an entry point, Larnaca itself is charming. The palm-lined Finikoudes promenade is the heart of the city, perfect for a coffee by the sea. History enthusiasts must visit the Church of Saint Lazarus, dating back to the 9th century, and the Hala Sultan Tekke mosque by the Salt Lake—where you can spot pink flamingos in the cooler months. - Gateway to the Resorts
For many of our clients, Larnaca is the starting point for the famous beaches of the east coast. - Ayia Napa: Known for Nissi Beach and vibrant nightlife, it also offers quiet, family-friendly spots and a beautiful sculpture park.
- Protaras: Famous for Fig Tree Bay, this area offers calm, shallow waters ideal for families with young children.
- A Culinary Island
Cypriot food is a highlight. You cannot leave without trying a "Meze"—a feast of small dishes ranging from dips and salads to grilled meats. And, of course, Halloumi cheese originates here; tasting it fresh from the grill is a culinary rite of passage.
Practical Travel Tips for Norwegians
- Driving on the Left: A legacy of British rule, Cyprus drives on the left. If you rent a car to explore the Troodos Mountains, take extra care at roundabouts and intersections.
- Power Plugs: Cyprus uses the British-style three-pin plug (Type G). You will need an adapter for your Norwegian devices.
- Sun Protection: The sun in Cyprus is intense. The UV index remains high even in spring and autumn. Sun protection is mandatory.
- The Green Line: Cyprus is a divided island. While you can cross into the north in Nicosia, ensure you stick to official crossing points and keep your passport handy. Most rental cars from the south are not insured for travel in the north.
