Is it allowed for a resident of TRNC to travel to Larnaca fly to say Corfu ,stay there for a week then fly back to Larnaca, then cross the border again , is it possible at all?

Of course. Our neighbours and friends cross the Green Line in to the Republic and fly from and to Larnaca all the time.

If you are a Brit and came via Ercan you will be quizzed as to how you got here.
On re-entry to Larnaca you may be refused.
Regardless, you start the 90/180 day rule for EU entry.

It’s entirely possible just bear in mind that on your return, RoC authorities do not consider you to have left the island by crossing to the North.

Continuing on this topic......so if I fly out from LCA and back (having previously entered the island from ECN) then I need to make another exit via LCA within 90days to fulfil my 90/180 rule??
Then as a resident of the North it is best to then re-enter via ECN??

At some point you will have to leave within the 90/180 rule.
I know that Larnaca-Athens-Istanbul- Ercan has been done before.
Then you can re-enter the north via Ercan.

Yes and yes as far as I understand it.
