Desert gateway serving the ancient city of Palmyra.

Location
Tadmur, Syria
Palmyra Airport, designated with IATA code PMS and ICAO code OSPR, is a small regional airport located near Tadmur (Palmyra) in the Homs Governorate of central Syria. The airport serves the historic oasis city of Palmyra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its ancient Roman-era ruins. The airport has had limited commercial operations and has been significantly affected by the Syrian Civil War, which began in 2011. The region around Palmyra experienced intense conflict, including periods of control by ISIS, causing substantial damage to infrastructure in the area. As of recent years, the airport's operational status remains severely limited or non-functional for civilian use. Prior to the conflict, the airport primarily handled domestic Syrian Air flights and limited charter traffic serving tourists visiting the ancient ruins. The broader instability in Syria has rendered regular commercial aviation to and from Palmyra essentially suspended.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and the city of Tadmur was primarily by road, with taxi services available for the short distance into town.
