I'm flying to Cyprus in July - does anyone know where I can obtain a list of
duty free prices at Edinburgh Airport (I'm particularly interested in Cuban
cigars)

Not sure, if not on BAA's site. You'll probably pick them up cheaper
in Cyprus anyway.

Cyprus (Southern part) is EU -> no duty free. So cigars will not be cheaper.

Hi,
Sorry cannot answer your question directly.
If you are going to "Cypriot* Cyprus then it is in the EU and therefore
you cannot buy duty free goods. If you are going to Turkish Cyprus (aka
Northern Cyprus) it is not in the EU etc etc.
It is possible that cigars will be cheaper in Cyprus anyway. Whether
you find what you want is another story.
If it helps at all 
Charles

True, no duty free. But cigarettes are certainly a fraction of the price
in Cyprus compared to the UK. I would expect cigars to be cheaper too,
since most of this price difference will be because of high UK taxes on
tobacco.

Thanks to all for the replies - I'm off to Ayia Napa - does anyone know of
any decent cigar outlets in Ayia Napa or Larnaca?
