Jazeera Airways has resumed direct flights between Kuwait and Deir ez-Zor, Syria, marking the return of international air connectivity to the region after a 14-year hiatus. The airline will operate two flights per week to meet travel demand and facilitate movement for residents in the Gulf.

This resumption follows the rehabilitation of Deir ez-Zor International Airport, which has resumed operations with domestic flights from Damascus and international flights from Kuwait. Local authorities have announced an integrated development plan for the eastern region involving infrastructure, health, and industrial upgrades.
