Flydubai airline is preparing to resume flights to Syria, a company spokesperson told RIA Novosti on Wednesday. On Monday, media reported that the United Arab Emirates' General Civil Aviation Authority would soon allow flights to Syria again.

Flydubai is welcoming the decision of the UAE authorities and is in touch with competent institutions, the spokesperson said, adding that the resumption of flights to Syria will be announced as soon as all necessary preparations are completed and the permissions are received.

Flights from the United Arab Emirates to Syria were suspended more than a decade ago due to the instability in Syria.

On Sunday, Ahmed Sharaa, the leader of the new Syrian administration, visited the UAE and held talks with UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who confirmed his readiness to support Syria during the transition period.

Flydubai welcomed the decision by UAE authorities and said it is coordinating with the necessary institutions. The spokesperson added that the airline will announce the official restart once all preparations are complete and required approvals are secured. Flights between the UAE and Syria were suspended more than a decade ago due to armed conflict and instability in Syria.

Other countries have followed suit. Last January, Turkey resumed flights to Damascus after 13 years. Turkish Airlines initially suspended flights to Syria in 2011 following the outbreak of the war in the neighboring country.
