Dubai: Emirates has officially returned to the Syrian capital Damascus, putting the“City of Jasmine” back on its expansive network of Middle East destinations. The airline is ready to reconnect travellers with the city and destinations across six continents.

Emirates' services to Damascus will initially operate three times per week, on Monday, Wednesday and Sunday, with plans to increase services to four-weekly from 2 August with an additional flight on Saturday. Emirates will expand its services to Damascus to daily operations effective 26 October.

Emirates customers flying to and from Damascus will also benefit from the airline's codeshare partnership with flydubai, which will complement its flight schedule and network, providing more options and convenience when flying in and out of the Syrian capital.

The Emirates Boeing 777-200LR aircraft operating to and from Damascus features 38 Business Class seats alongside 264 seats in Economy Class.

Emirates commenced services to Damascus in 1988, and prior to suspending operations in 2012 the airline carried over 2.1 million passengers in and out of Syria.

The airline currently flies to 14 cities in the Middle East/GCC, serving the region with a total of 194 weekly flights.
