Cyprus airports are not in the list, why?[edit]

Larnaca airport in Cyprus (= E.U. member state !!!) had 8,073,93 passengers in 2023. Dimgiag (talk) 07:28, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I had the same question 2A02:214A:820A:B000:A054:49AB:8960:CC89 (talk) 10:01, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It might be useful to begin by searching the archive for consensuses regarding what is in(/ex)cluded. Alternatively, there exists the List of the busiest airports in the European Union. Respublik (talk) 03:42, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Canary Islands[edit]

Canary Islands is part of Spain yet appears not included, Las Palmas being busiest. Would clearly feature in ranking it appears. Yet they are in the Wiki entry for busiest Spanish airports? Thank you 195.76.170.81 (talk) 23:33, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it is due to the fact that the Canary Islands are on the African continent. These are the airports in the Canary Islands with traffic exceeding 5 million.

Gran Canaria → 13.961.638

Tenerife Sur → 12.337.244

Lanzarote → 8.212.943

Tenerife Norte → 6.120.550

Fuerteventura → 6.020.413 Tobetto (talk) 01:11, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
