Syria Airlines' first direct flight arrived today at Damascus International Airport from the German capital, Berlin, in a move that represents the return of the national airline to the European airspace.
The head of the General Authority for Civil Aviation and Air Transport, Omar Al-Khosuri, said that the arrival of the flight represents a new stop on Syria Airlines' return route to Europe, and an important step towards expanding its network of destinations and improving direct air connectivity between Syria and European cities.
Al-Khosuri added that the Authority is working to keep up with the pace of expansion by developing the operational and regulatory environment for the civil aviation sector, and increasing the readiness of Syria's airports and their services, in a way that will increase Syria's return to the international air transport network and open wider horizons for communication with the world.
