Aleppo International Airport (ALP)

Aleppo International Airport (ALP) is a major aviation hub in northern Syria, serving the historic city of Aleppo and the surrounding industrial governorate. Following periods of regional instability, the airport has undergone significant technical assessments and was most recently announced for a full resumption of civil aviation services in early 2026. The facility features a modern, four-story passenger terminal spanning 38,000 square meters, designed to accommodate up to 1.7 million passengers annually. It serves as a primary base for Syrian Air and the rebranded Fly Cham, providing essential connections between northern Syria and regional hubs in the Middle East. The terminal experience at Aleppo is designed to provide essential comforts within a functional and secure environment. Inside, passengers have access to a variety of amenities including duty-free shops, several restaurants and cafes serving traditional Syrian refreshments, and dedicated waiting lounges for business class travelers. Recent infrastructure upgrades have introduced modernized security screening protocols and digital flight information systems to improve the efficiency of the departures hall. While the facility maintains a focus on security, it provides essential services such as free Wi-Fi in select areas, multiple ATMs, and information desks where staff can assist with onward travel across the Levant. Operational stability at ALP is a high priority for the Syrian General Authority of Civil Aviation, which is overseeing a major development plan in partnership with international investors. This initiative, including the projected launch of 'flynas Syria' in late 2026, aims to transform Aleppo into a world-class logistical node with a long-term vision for a new terminal capable of handling twelve million passengers. The current terminal area represents a professional and resilient entry point to one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, offering immediate access to the historic urban center and the recovering industrial zones of the region. For visitors, the airport serves as the essential threshold to the cultural treasures of the Aleppo Citadel and the vibrant markets of the northern plains.
