The airline encouraged customers to check their flight status before heading to the airport. "In case of any impact on scheduled operations, updates will be shared promptly to registered contact details. We will continue to keep you informed and remain committed to supporting you throughout this period," the advisory added.
The travel alert comes amid heightened military tensions in the Middle East region following a joint operation by Israel and the United States, targeting Iranian military and nuclear-linked infrastructure. The operation, codenamed "Operation Roaring Lion," marked a significant escalation in the long-simmering conflict.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the action as an effort to counter what he termed an existential threat, while US President Donald Trump confirmed the strikes and warned of further consequences if hostilities persist.
In response to the strikes, Iran, Israel and Iraq have closed their airspace, disrupting international aviation routes. Several reports indicated explosions in parts of Tehran, while emergency measures were activated in Israel. The unfolding crisis has also impacted diplomatic efforts, with nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran in Oman reportedly disrupted.
Major airlines have begun adjusting operations in response to the volatile situation. Air India suspended all flights to Middle Eastern destinations, citing safety concerns, while Qatar Airways temporarily halted services to and from Doha due to the Qatari airspace closure.
