Airlines are told not to fly over western Syria at any altitude, and not below 26,000 feet over the rest of the country. Higher up, outside the west, they are asked to take extra care.

European regulators tell airlines not to operate over the western part of Syria at any height, and not below 26,000 feet anywhere else in the country. Higher up, outside the west, the advice is to take extra care rather than to stay out, and to fly in daylight where possible. The main risks are missiles aimed at Israel and Jordan being shot down over the south-west, strikes concentrated in that area, and armed groups whose weapons can reach low-flying aircraft. The area shown here is the whole country: the closed western part is not drawn separately yet.
