What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

Core useWorks

Route search worked from a Syrian connection. A search between two airports returned a direct route with its airline and timetable, and a longer search returned connecting routes with one stop.

Landing pageWorks

The FlightConnections site opened normally from a Syrian connection without a VPN. A search for Syria listed it among the countries with a padlock, which is the Premium lock every user sees on country search, not a block on Syria.

Upgrading to FlightConnections Premium was not possible from a Syrian connection. The Premium plans were offered, but the purchase could not go through because the Stripe checkout page would not load.

Frequently Asked Questions

Partly. The core use of FlightConnections works in Syria, but something else about it fails or has not been checked. This page lists what works and what does not.
