Dubai-based airline flydubai has confirmed the cancellation of flights to Jordan, Iran, Iraq, and Israel on Saturday, alongside some flight diversions, following Israeli strikes on Iranian military sites. This action by Israel was in response to Tehran’s earlier attacks on Israel this month.
A flydubai spokesperson stated, “We will continue to closely monitor the situation in the region and amend our flight schedule accordingly.” Passengers are advised to reach out to the flydubai contact center at (+971) 600 54 44 45, a flydubai travel shop, or their travel agents for rebooking or refunds.
Emirates Flights Temporarily Suspended
Emirates has also announced the suspension of flights to and from Baghdad and Tehran until October 30. Passengers traveling through Dubai with these cities as final destinations will not be permitted to board at their points of origin until that date. Additionally, Emirates flights to and from Beirut remain canceled until October 31, with restrictions on passenger transits to Beirut in place until further notice.
