Destination coming into Tripoli by air? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

libya

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'destination coming' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.

'into tripoli by air?' is the wordplay.
'into' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'LIBYA' is hidden in the letters of 'tripoli by air'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for libya that I've seen before include "Tripoli's country" , "Land" , "Where Idris was king" , "Colonel Gadaffi's country" , "North African nation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
