In view of escalating tensions in Syria and refusal of European air companies including Air France, Aeroflot, Alitalia to operate flights to the country, Armavia aircompany expressed readiness to continue flights to Syria.

“To help transport our compatriots seeking to leave Syria, we’re ready to continue flights regardless of risks and recommendations against visiting the country,” the air company said.

The air company is ready to initiate additional flights to Syria if assisted by the government of Armenia.
