From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ercan International Airport (IATA: ECN, ICAO: LCEN), or Tymvou in Greek, is the principal airport of entry into the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
It is located northeast of the Cypriot capital city of Nicosia near the village of Tymvou and it is not internationally recognised as a legal port of entry except by Turkey, the "TRNC", and Azerbaijan (though the latter nation thus far only permits charter flights direct from Baku, not commercial)[citation needed]. All international flights thus touch down in Turkey before continuing to Ercan, although it is known that KTHY does fly straight to Ercan when there are no passangers to get on/off from Turkey.
