Meeting you at arrivals
Damascus airport car rental with Tab means the car is waiting when you clear customs, and there is no fee for bringing it to you — delivery to Damascus International Airport (DAM) is free, whichever terminal you land at.
Send us your flight number when you book. That single detail does more work than an arrival time: flights into DAM shift, and the number lets us track the landing and time the handover so the car is outside arrivals when you actually walk out, not forty minutes before or after. We meet you in the arrivals hall with a sign, hand over the keys, and you drive.
The road into town
The airport sits roughly 25 km southeast of the city, and the drive in is one straight shot along the airport highway before it feeds into the southern ring road. Traffic is light on the highway itself; the delay, when there is one, is at a checkpoint or in the last few kilometres as you come into the built-up edge of the city. Budget 30 to 45 minutes for the centre, a little less for Jaramana or the eastern suburbs, and more at the end of the working day.
From the ring road, exits reach most of where visitors are actually going: Mazzeh and Kafr Sousseh to the west, Abu Rummaneh and Malki north of the centre, and Bab Touma and the Old City if you are staying inside the walls. Our own office is in Al-Mazraa, near Damascus City Centre, so you are never far from us once you are in town.
Driving on from Damascus
Most people who pick up at the airport do not stay in Damascus the whole trip. The M5 north is the spine of the country: Homs is around 160 km and takes about two hours, Aleppo is roughly 350 km and a long half-day, and Latakia and Tartus branch west from the same road for the coast. If you already know you are ending the trip in another city, say so when you book — where you leave the car changes what we plan for.
Book before you fly
Tell us your dates, your flight number and the class of car you want, and we will confirm the airport handover and the total, delivery included. Booking a day or two ahead is enough for most arrivals.
