Paphos Airport to Limassol by Bus (Limassol Airport Express)

There are two practical bus plans from Paphos Airport to Limassol. The direct Limassol Airport Express runs between the airport and Agios Georgios Havouza Station. The cheaper public-bus plan uses OSYPA 613 to Karavella and then Intercity 56 to Limassol, with a connection in Paphos.

Quick answer

• Simplest option: take the Limassol Airport Express direct to Agios Georgios Havouza.
• Cheaper public option: take 613 to Karavella, then Intercity 56 toward Limassol. It is a two-leg trip and needs a connection.
• How often does the shuttle run? A handful of times per day, with a separate timetable for each weekday. Check the live table for your date.
• Which airport stop? At the airport, use the Paphos Airport stop in the shared shuttle and public-bus bay. It is also used by routes 612/613. The nearby Kapnos bay is a different stop.

Option 1: Limassol Airport Express

The Limassol Airport Express is operated by EAL Ltd, The Urban Limassol Bus Company. Its Paphos service runs between the airport and Agios Georgios Havouza Station in Limassol. It is not an OSYPA service.

At Paphos Airport, the Limassol Airport Express coach uses the stop named Paphos Airport in the airport forecourt. It is also the stop used by OSYPA 612 and 613. The internal stop code is kept out of the reader-facing instructions because you only need the stop name when you arrive.

Buy the shuttle ticket from the driver. The operator publishes a separate weekday table, so use the live timetable rather than relying on a repeated weekly pattern.

Option 2: public bus via Paphos

There is no direct public bus from Paphos Airport to Limassol. The public route is 613 from the airport to Karavella Bus Station, followed by Intercity 56 from Karavella to Limassol.

The airport stop is the same OBA stop as above, but the operator is different: OSYPA runs 613, while Intercity Buses runs 56. Allow time to change at Karavella and check both live tables before leaving the airport.

This public alternative is substantially slower than the direct shuttle once the connection is included. The live planner can show the next viable 613 and 56 combination.

Which option should I pick?

• Limassol Airport Express: direct, one shuttle ticket, and the easiest choice with luggage.
• 613 plus Intercity 56: public buses and a lower combined fare, but a transfer at Karavella and a longer journey.

For the wider Paphos Airport picture, see Paphos Airport to Paphos by bus, including the 612 and 613 city routes. If you are connecting between Larnaca and Paphos airports, the same operator also offers a separate airport-to-airport connection, covered in Larnaca Airport to Paphos.

Do not use the wrong airport stop

Paphos Airport has two bus bays in the same forecourt, roughly a short walk apart:

• Paphos Airport shuttle and public-bus bay: Limassol Airport Express and routes 612/613.
• Kapnos bay: a separate airport shuttle service.

Choosing the Kapnos stop will hide the Limassol Airport Express departures. This guide is for Limassol, not for a Kapnos trip to Nicosia or Larnaca.
