Flights from Edinburgh with Tui have been scrapped as the airline battles the on going coronavirus pandemic.
Tui, the package holiday travel company, have grounded a number of flights around the UK as travel restrictions around the globe change.
Despite Britain being on the green list to some countries, Tui has stopped flights to red and amber listed destinations.
All flights, with the airline, from Scotland have been cancelled up to and including June 13, affecting the Edinburgh-Larnaca route.
On a statement on their website, Tui said: "All customers impacted by these cancellations will be contacted directly and will be able to request a full cash refund, or to change to a later date or alternative holiday and receive a booking incentive.
"If we need to cancel any future holidays because of updated Government guidance, we will be in touch directly and aim to give customers at least 7 days’ notice.
"We would like to thank our customers for their understanding at this time".
