Air India and Air India Express have announced the cancellation of 14 flights today due to the ongoing situation in the Middle East. However, flights have been planned from Sharjah to Delhi, Kannur, Kochi, Kozhikode, Mumbai, and Thiruvananthapuram. Air India stated in a press release that two flights will also operate from Ras Al Khaimah to Kozhikode and Kochi.
The airline stated that these flights will operate subject to slot availability and the prevailing conditions at the time of operation. They added that ad-hoc operations in the region have been reduced following instructions from the UAE Airport Authorities. The flight operator further stated that passengers on cancelled or temporarily suspended services can rebook to a future date without additional charges, or opt for a full refund.
On the other hand, Indigo has informed that their flight operations have been restricted in Dubai, leading to changes in flight schedules. The airline has requested passengers travelling to or from Dubai to check their flight status before leaving for the airport.
