Syrian Airlines expands European network with direct flights to Copenhagen, Vienna

Syrian Airlines is set to expand its European network with direct flights to Copenhagen and Vienna starting from September 21 and 22 respectively. This brings the carrier's European destinations to a total of three, in addition to Amsterdam. Omar Al Hosari, President of the General Authority for Civil Aviation and Air Transport, announced the new routes as part of efforts to develop the national carrier's network and enhance direct air links between Syria and Europe.

The flights to Copenhagen will commence on Monday, September 21, followed by services to Vienna on Tuesday, September 22. Al Hosari stated that these new destinations will offer passengers more travel options, particularly for Syrians living in Europe, while also reducing the need for connecting flights and helping to shorten journey times and associated costs.

The process of launching a new international route involves fulfilling various requirements, including securing regulatory approvals, coordinating with aviation authorities and airports, and completing technical and commercial arrangements. Al Hosari added that the airline is continuing to work on expanding its European and regional destinations, with further routes expected to be announced as the regulatory and operational requirements for each destination are fulfilled.
