Air Arabia, one of the low-cost airlines in the Middle East and North Africa, has announced the resumption of its direct flights between Sharjah and Damascus from July 10 this month. The direct service will operate twice daily.
A press release published on Air Arabia's website said the move enables travelers to fly between Sharjah International Airport and Damascus International Airport, and also underlines Air Arabia's continued commitment to offering value-added travel options for customers between the UAE and Syria.
The schedule for flights from Sharjah to Damascus, with all times local, is as follows:
Flight G9 433: departs Sharjah at 04:15 and arrives in Damascus at 06:30.

The flights operate daily, boosting travel between the two countries and offering greater flexibility for travelers from expatriate communities, families and business travelers.
In this context, Adel Al Ali, Group Chief Executive Officer of Air Arabia, said the resumption of flights between Sharjah and Damascus after several years of suspension reflects "our ongoing commitment to enhancing regional air travel."
He added that the launch of these flights helps serve the Syrian community in the region by providing new travel options and meeting the growing demand for travel between the UAE and Syria. "By offering two daily flights, we aim to give business travelers and tourists more comfort and flexibility, while contributing to the growth of trade, tourism and cultural exchange between the two countries," he said.
Air Arabia operates a fleet of Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft, the latest and best-selling single-aisle aircraft in the world. The aircraft cabin offers extra comfort, with more space between seats than any other economy cabin.
