FAMAGUSTA GAZETTE — Cyprus Airways has alerted customers to a potential personal data breach following a phishing attack that allowed unauthorized access to passenger information.

In an email to customers, the airline stated that an external party had gained access to a passenger file through credential phishing. However, the company emphasized that its servers and electronic infrastructure were not compromised.

The affected data does not include passwords, credit card details, or payment-related information, according to the airline. Instead, the breach primarily involves contact details of customers who had previously booked flights.

Information that may have been leaked includes full names, identity or passport numbers, email addresses, telephone numbers, flight numbers, routes, and fare types.
