Air traffic at Aleppo Airport has been suspended for a duration of 24 hours, leading to the immediate redirection of all scheduled flights. During this period, air operations originally set for the northern city are being rerouted to Damascus to ensure continued service.

Flights Rerouted to the Capital

According to reports from the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) published on January 6, 2026, the temporary shutdown of Aleppo Airport has necessitated a change in flight paths. All incoming and outgoing aircraft are currently being diverted to Damascus as the alternative hub for the next 24 hours.

Operational Adjustments

The one-day closure means that travelers and airline carriers must adapt to the temporary relocation of services. While Aleppo Airport remains unavailable for the 24-hour window, Damascus will handle the traffic flow to minimize disruptions to the aviation schedule.
