Amid the regional situation, more than fifty flights from Pakistan to the Middle East were canceled.

The continuing US-Israel-Iran confrontation has caused significant interruptions to airline operations between Pakistan and the Middle East, with 52 flights cancelled and about 50 delayed.

Eleven flights from Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Peshawar were canceled today (Saturday), according to aviation sources.

Fifteen flights headed for Middle Eastern destinations were delayed, while sixteen were canceled in Karachi alone.

In a same vein, eight flights from Lahore to places including Dubai, Doha, and Kuwait City were canceled, and seven more were delayed.

Ten flights to locations like Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah were canceled from Peshawar, while fifteen flights from Islamabad were cancelled and twenty were delayed. Two flights from Multan were also canceled.

The problems occur when a number of Middle Eastern nations’ airspace has been closed since the start of the Iran War. Over 2,600 flights between Pakistan and the Middle East have reportedly been canceled at this time.

Travel schedules are impacted by uncertainties in regional airspace, so authorities are still keeping an eye on the situation.
