The big European airlines don't fly to Syria, following EASA's advice to stay out of part of Syrian airspace at any height and below 26,000 feet over the rest (revised 1 October 2026, valid to 30 November 2026). It is advice, not a ban: Sundair, LEAV and Dan Air fly in with their own regulators' approval. The direct routes above are those smaller carriers or Syrian Air. AEGEAN has announced Athens–Damascus from 2 December 2026.
