Safety for passengers and flight crewmembers is of great importance to the airline. The airline also gave a statement to notify the passengers and offer a full refund of the unused tickets.

Other major airlines operating services to Damascus are Emirates with one flight per day while Qatar Airways already stopped their services. However, Etihad Airways will continue flights to neighbouring Lebanon with no disruptions.
