Transportation from the City Center to the Airport:
The distance between the Aleppo Airport and the city center is short.

From these airports, you can rent a car and within 2-3 hours you can reach Aleppo city center. At Gaziantep Airport, there are seven car rental companies, both local and international and at Hatay Airport there are three local car rental companies.
Also, some companies provide shuttle services to Aleppo from both airports; but lately, these companies have temporarily suspended their services.
