Passengers walk out of a SyrianAir airplane at Qamishli airport in the northeaster Syrian city, near the border with Turkey, on May 15, 2013. International sanctions have piled up against the Syrian national carrier but the airline is operating at full capacity as civil war has made domestic road travel perilous and Syrian expatriates have few alternatives to get home to see family.
