Air India Halts Flights to Europe and North America Amid Middle East Tensions – Impact in New Delhi

New Delhi – Air India has suspended its flights to Europe and North America following rising tensions in the Middle East. The decision came after Iranian missile strikes targeted an American military base in Qatar on June 23. This escalation has caused widespread disruption in travel across the region.

The airline made the announcement on Tuesday, citing safety concerns for its passengers and crew. Flights to major cities in Europe and North America have been temporarily halted until the situation stabilizes. In addition to these suspensions, travel to the Middle East is facing significant disruptions due to heightened security measures and airspace restrictions.

Passengers booked on affected flights are advised to contact Air India for rescheduling and refund options. The airline is also coordinating with aviation authorities to monitor the situation closely and ensure the safety of all operations.

This move highlights the broader impact of geopolitical instability on global air travel, especially for routes passing through or near conflict zones. Travelers planning trips involving the Middle East or transatlantic routes should stay informed about possible changes.
