UAE low-cost carrier Air Arabia Abu Dhabi has announced the launch of direct flights between Abu Dhabi and Aleppo in Syria from 7 July, with 3 flights a week between Zayed International Airport (AUH) and Aleppo International Airport (ALP), strengthening air travel between the UAE and Syria.
The airline said the flight schedule to Aleppo from 7 July 2026 (local times) is as follows:
Flight L4563 departs Abu Dhabi at 09:00 and arrives in Aleppo at 11:30, on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Flight L4573 departs Aleppo at 12:30 and arrives in Abu Dhabi at 16:50, on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Alongside the launch of the new Aleppo destination, the airline will increase its current flights between Abu Dhabi and Damascus from 4 a week to a daily flight from 1 July 2026.
In this context, Adel Al Ali, Group CEO of Air Arabia, said: "The launch of our new flights to Aleppo and the increase in our flights to Damascus is a strategic step that affirms our continued commitment to strengthening air travel and offering comfortable, value-added travel solutions to our customers. This step reflects growing demand for travel between the UAE and Syria and affirms our continued efforts to support trade, tourism and cultural ties between the two countries."
Air Arabia announced at the beginning of June the resumption of its direct flights to Aleppo from Sharjah International Airport. The airline thus continues to strengthen air connectivity between the UAE and Syria, offering travelers wider options and a more flexible travel experience. Customers can now book direct flights between Abu Dhabi and Aleppo through the Air Arabia website, its contact center or travel agents.
Air Arabia operates a modern fleet consisting entirely of Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft, the world's best-selling single-aisle aircraft, and offers a distinctive travel experience with SkyTime, a free inflight streaming service giving passengers access to a variety of films and entertainment directly on their devices, as well as the SkyCafe menu with a variety of tasty dishes and snacks at reasonable prices.
