Escalating conflict in the Middle East has forced airlines worldwide to cancel or suspend flights to destinations including Dubai, Riyadh, Doha, Tel Aviv, and Beirut. Carriers such as Air France-KLM, Lufthansa, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, and Indian airlines have scaled back services or rerouted aircraft, citing safety and airspace restrictions.
Thousands of passengers face disruptions, prompting airlines to advise checking flight status before travel. Airspace closures linked to the Iran‑related conflict have complicated international travel and repatriation, with further cancellations possible as geopolitical tensions persist.
