It has been two years now since Eurocypria replaced its fleet with B737-800 aircraft. Speaking at a press conference on Friday 08.04.05, Mr. George Souroullas – General Manager of Eurocypria Airlines – described the B737-800 as the most appropriate type of aircraft for charter airlines. The B737-800 equipped with CFM56 engines has played a significant role in the successful course of the Airline; the technical reliability of the aircraft remains at very high levels in the region of 99.5%, while the low maintenance cost, savings in fuel consumption and increased passenger revenue due to the higher seat capacity have all contributed towards this success.

2004, was another profitable year for Eurocypria Airlines, with profits reaching CYP2 million. Low operating costs, high productivity, flexibility, speed in the decision making process and aggressive commercial efforts are among the reasons quoted by Mr. Souroullas for this positive result.

Eurocypria has also managed strategically reduce its dependence on specific markets and clients, by increasing its client base by 50% and by penetrating into new markets like France, Poland, Finland and Cyprus.
