The date for THY's first flight to Damascus has been announced. Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abdulkadir Uraloğlu stated that the first flight from Turkey to Damascus will be on January 23.
In his statement, Uraloğlu said, "THY will fly to Damascus on January 23. This will be a significant step with the Damascus flights. In our country, which has become one of the leading transit centers in the world in air travel, we have increased the number of countries with which we have air transport agreements from 81 to 175 after 23 years. We have also initiated a new era with new regulations that will protect the rights of both passengers and air carriers in our aviation sector."
With the overthrow of the Baath regime's representative Assad, the opposition came to power in Syria. Life is returning to normal in Syria, which has regained its freedom. Many immigrants who had to leave their country due to the attacks of the Assad regime and its supporters, including Russia, Iran-backed terrorist groups, and terrorist organizations PKK/YPG and ISIS, have also started to return to their homeland.

Turkish Airlines (THY) will start its flights to Damascus on January 23 with round trips. The first flight to Damascus will be operated on Thursday, January 23, at 09:00 from Istanbul Airport with a wide-body Airbus A330-203 aircraft.
