Air India has temporarily suspended all flights to Europe and North America due to escalating tensions in the Middle East. This decision follows the Iranian missile attacks on a U.S. military base in Qatar on June 23, which have severely disrupted air travel in the region.
The airline announced the suspension on Tuesday, emphasizing passenger and crew safety as the primary reason. Flights between India and these continents are now subject to cancellations and rescheduling, affecting thousands of travelers who rely on Middle Eastern hubs for connecting flights.
As the situation remains unstable, the conflict has caused wide-ranging disruptions throughout the Middle East’s airspace. Various airlines face disturbances, and aviation experts caution that further interruptions may occur.
Passengers affected by these changes should:
- Contact Air India directly for the latest flight status.
- Inquire about alternative travel arrangements.
This development underscores the impact of geopolitical crises on international air travel and connectivity.
