Not everyone who flies to Northern Cyprus choose a transfer taxi at arrival. Many prefer regular buses, that make trips between the airport and the main cities of the country. These are Nicosia, Kyrenia, Famagusta and Lefke.
You can drop off on the road in a village you need, but for this you need to warn the driver in advance.
