Algeria announces the resumption of flights to Syria and Lebanon after a hiatus that lasted for several years.
Flights started from December 21, 2023 towards Beirut and Damascus, at a rate of one flight per week.
Flights between Algeria and Syria stopped about 12 years ago, and between Algeria and Lebanon due to the “Corona” pandemic in 2020.In May 2017, the Algerian ambassador to Damascus pledged to operate his country’s airline flights to Syria.
The Syrian Ministry of Transport appreciated this step and “looks forward to providing all the necessary facilities and procedures to serve these flights and providing everything that contributes to the continuity of operation, and even seeking to increase it in the future.”
Algerian Airlines to Syria were halted after the military escalation in the vicinity of the capital, Damascus, the difficulty of landing planes at Damascus International Airport, and the suspension of Aleppo International Airport, despite the continuation of diplomatic relations between Syria and Algeria.
Because of the war, most airlines have stopped flying to Syria since the outbreak of the crisis in mid-March 2011.
Israel targets Syrian airports, repeatedly putting Damascus and Aleppo airports out of service, and all incoming and outgoing flights are transferred to Latakia International Airport.

Highly recommended travel agency! silvia fer 2023-12-02 The Syria Scope Team es una compañía increíble. Te da una seguridad absoluta desde el principio del recorrido hasta el final. Una organización increíble e inmejorable. Hicimos un recorrido de 8 días, salimos de Beirut donde te recoge un chófer a la hora y el lugar acordado. El realiza todos los trámites necesarios para pasar la frontera uniéndose después al segundo chófer, hay muy buena comunicación entre ellos y te sientes segura en el Cruze fronterizo. Cuando llegamos a Damasco descansamos y empezamos nuestra ruta, con un maravilloso guía que es increíblemente simpático y profesional. En nuestra ruta de 8 días vemos Damasco, Maloula,Homs, Aleppo Apamea,Hama,krak des Chevaliers,Almishtaya,Palmyra, y de vuelta a Damascus. Siria es increíble y a pesar de su situación es realmente segura. Está claro que volveré a ir. También quiero decir que la comunicación es realmente increíble dejando bien claro los precios desde el principio. Es la compañía de viajes más fiable que conozco. Gracias por vuestro trato siempre tan increíblemente humano. li edith 2023-11-24 Wonderful experience with their tour Clear and flexible arrangement Kind and helpful people Everything on spot Highly recommended Renato Cerrato 2023-11-22 Perfect, one of best trips in my life so far.

Sergio Gironella 2023-10-02 I was in Syria in December 2022 and our tour operator, Syria Scope, really took care of all details. We traveled all across the country and everything went smoothly. Hotel accommodations were comfortable, our guide was professional and knowledgeable and the overall experience was well worth it. I can recommend this to anyone willing to visit this beautiful country and please do not be biased about the media saying it is dangerous.
