Why airlines make Orbis their partner in Syria
Operating into a demanding market should not mean juggling a dozen vendors, opaque invoices and uncertain timelines. Orbis removes that risk — one accountable partner, our own equipment, direct access to the authorities, and a promise we stand behind.
The difference is control, credibility and clarity
Most handling arrangements are only as strong as the weakest sub-contractor in the chain. We built Orbis differently: we own the equipment, hold the relationships, and take responsibility for the whole operation — so what we promise is what you get.
Everything under one roof
Ground handling, fuel, flight planning, catering, permits, VIP, charter, representation and cargo — coordinated by one team on one contract. No finger-pointing between vendors; one partner is accountable for the whole turnaround.
Our own equipment in four airports
We are not dependent on whatever a third party can spare. Orbis owns complete ground-handling equipment in Damascus, Aleppo, Deir ez-Zor and Qamishli, so service levels stay consistent and reliable at every station.
Direct access to the authorities
Close, direct relationships with the General Authority of Civil Aviation and other official bodies let us secure overflight and landing permits and operational clearances fast — including urgent and complex requests that others cannot move.
Transparent, all-inclusive pricing
Our quotes include local taxes and into-plane fees up front. No hidden line items, no surprises in the final invoice — just clear numbers you can plan and budget around.
State-backed credibility
Founded by the Syrian Sovereign Fund, Orbis pairs institutional standing with private-sector agility — exactly the reassurance foreign operators need before committing aircraft to a new market.
Your local arm on the ground
We become the airline's voice before airports and authorities, handling procedures, slots and daily coordination on your behalf — so your team can focus on flying, not paperwork.
Speed and a 24/7 watch
In aviation, time is money. We commit to the fastest safe turnaround and keep a round-the-clock operational watch on every flight, ready to respond the moment anything changes.
International safety standards
Every task is carried out in full compliance with international safety standards and in close coordination with airport authorities and approved agents — precision and safety are never traded for speed.
We can build the airport, too
Uniquely, our capability extends to airfield and civil works: runway rehabilitation, marking, navigational lighting and terminal build-out. One partner can restore an airport and then run its daily operations.
We stand behind every commitment
When we say the fastest turnaround, transparent pricing and a fully compliant flight, we mean it — and we put our name, and the ORBIS trademark, behind it. That is what being "the right compass" means.
- A single accountable partner from wheels-down to wheels-up.
- Clear, all-inclusive pricing agreed before the flight.
- Full compliance with civil-aviation and safety standards.
- A dedicated coordinator reachable around the clock.
