About Bassel Al-Assad International Airport
Latakia International Airport (IATA: LTK, ICAO: OSLK) (Arabic: مطار اللاذقية الدولي, romanized: Maṭār al-Lādhiqīyah al-Duwalī) is an international airport serving Latakia, the principal port city of Syria.
Until 2024 the airport was officially known as Bassel Al-Assad International Airport (Arabic: مطار باسل الأسد الدولي), named for Bassel al-Assad (1962–1994), son of former Syrian President Hafez al-Assad and brother of his successor Bashar al-Assad.
