Emirates to Resume Flights to Damascus from July 16
Emirates will resume flights to Damascus from 16 July 2025, marking a major step in re-establishing air links between the UAE and Syria after more than a decade-long suspension. The airline halted operations to the Syrian capital in 2012, and its return follows a detailed review in coordination with the UAE General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA). The relaunch begins with three weekly flights—on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Sundays—and will gradually expand to daily service by 26 October. 'We are pleased to restart operations to Damascus and support Syria's road ahead by providing better connectivity and opening new trade lanes,' said H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group. He highlighted the role of the flights in supporting the Syrian diaspora, enhancing economic ties, and aiding the country's development. Emirates will operate the route using a Boeing 777-200LR, offering 302 seats. The service is expected to boost access to the airline's global network of nearly 150 destinations and support efforts to attract foreign investment across Syria's energy, construction, and agriculture sectors. The airline's codeshare agreement with flydubai will also enhance travel options for passengers to and from Damascus. Emirates first launched services to Syria in 1988 and carried over 2.1 million passengers before suspending flights in 2012. The restart underscores growing regional engagement with Syria and the UAE's commitment to strengthening bilateral ties. News Source: Emirates News Agency
