Damascus: UCC Holding, on behalf of the JV partners and through its subsidiary Urbacon Airports, has signed five consultancy and design agreements as part of Damascus International Airport comprehensive redevelopment project.

Scopes include the redevelopment of the airport and all associated facilities — a phased redevelopment designed to reach 31 million passengers annually. This includes the refurbishment of existing terminals and buildings, as well as the design and development of a new five-star hotel adjacent to the airport, featuring 200 premium rooms, multiple dining and leisure facilities, and direct terminal access.

The hotel will be managed and operated by by an internationally recognized hospitality brand, ensuring world-class service and guest experience.

Additionally, works are now underway across key infrastructure packages, including the beautification and enhancement of the Airport Road — a vital corridor connecting Lebanon–Syria border to Damascus International Airport— incorporating upgraded entrances and exits, improved safety and connectivity, enhanced lighting, and comprehensive landscaping.

Together, these initiatives form part of a transformative, multi-phase redevelopment program aimed at creating a modern, efficient, and sustainable aviation hub that meets ICAO and IATA international standards.
