But there are two.
Famagusta Derinia
Famagusta Ay Nick.
Being SBA the latter seems to work under different rules at times!

Yeah, that was why I asked, in case Jacob knew something different!
Jacob, you do realise that even if you fly into Ercan, you need a negative PCR test done between 3 and five days prior to travel, you will be given another PCR test on arrival in TRNC, and then quarantined for 7 days, and only released when you get a negative result on yet a third PCR test - all at your expense, including the quarantine...
Well, that was the last I heard, anyway - the regulations seem to alter every few days!
Best stay where you are for now

Jacob, I can see you are not happy and sensibly have asked KC to keep in touch with you, but as far as I'm concerned NON of it is Covid crap. Its a dangerous and little known virus and rules are there to try and reduce the deaths etc.
