The earlier decision of suspension had been taken, keeping in mind the security and safety of passengers flying through these danger-prone areas. Notably, Qatar temporarily suspended air traffic across the country, citing the safety of its citizens, residents, and visitors. This came after Iran reportedly launched multiple missiles targeting installations in Qatar and Iraq, including Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. (Note: As of the latest update, Qatar has reopened its airspace)
Flight operations to and from Dubai, Doha, Bahrain, Dammam, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, Madinah, Fujairah, Jeddah, Muscat, Sharjah, Riyadh, Ras AI-Khaimah and Tbilisi were suspended until 1000hrs today.
The Airlines informed about the suspension through a post on X and wrote, “In view of the evolving situation in the Middle East, our flight operations to and from Dubai, Doha, Bahrain, Dammam, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, Madinah, Fujairah, Jeddah, Muscat, Sharjah, Riyadh, Ras AI-Khaimah and Tbilisi have been suspended at least until 1000hrs today. We understand the impact this may have on your travel plans, and sincerely regret the inconvenience. Please be assured that this decision has been taken as a proactive safety measure.”
IndiGo has further asked passengers to keep checking their flight status via our website or mobile app. The Airlines has asserted that they will resume services as soon as safe flight corridors become available.
“We remain in close coordination with aviation authorities and monitoring the situation round-the-clock. We will resume services as soon as safe flight corridors become available,” the post by IndiGo added.
