When Do Damascus–Aleppo Flights Start
Syria's General Authority of Civil Aviation and Air Transport announced that Syrian Airlines, the country's national carrier, will begin operating direct domestic flights between Damascus and Aleppo starting November 18. Syria, a country where internal air travel was largely halted by more than a decade of war, is gradually rebuilding its civil aviation network, and this route reconnects its two largest cities by air.
Why Syria Is Expanding Domestic Air Routes
The authority said the step is part of the national carrier's efforts to widen its domestic network and strengthen air connectivity between Syrian cities. In practice, Damascus and Aleppo will serve as the first points in a domestic network expected to expand later to other cities, benefiting travelers, businesspeople and economic movement between provinces.
Who the New Route Serves and What Travelers Know So Far
The new service connects Damascus and Aleppo airports directly, allowing passengers to fly between the two cities instead of relying on the longer road journey. However, key operational details remain unannounced: no official information has yet been released on ticket prices or on the flight schedule and frequency.
