Iran's rapidly changing situation is directly impacting international flights with the closure of its airspace. Particularly due to ongoing tensions in the Middle East, all flights passing over Iran have had to be rerouted. In response to these evolving circumstances, Air India has issued a travel advisory for passengers.
Air India has made it clear that passenger safety is their top priority. Consequently, with Iran's airspace closure, many flights are now operating via alternative routes.
The introduction of these new routes may lead to increased flight times, potentially causing delays for passengers. Additionally, some flights have been canceled due to current route unavailability.
Air India urges passengers to check their flight status before heading to the airport to avoid unnecessary inconvenience and crowding. Updated information is available on their website and official platforms.
