Qatar Airways Suspends Flights Amid Qatari Airspace Closure


(MENAFN) Qatar Airways announced on Tuesday that its flight operations will remain temporarily suspended due to the ongoing closure of Qatari airspace.

The airline stated, "Qatar Airways will resume operations once the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority announces the safe reopening of Qatari airspace. A further update will be provided on 04 March by 09:00 Doha time (06:00 UTC)."

The suspension follows a series of escalating security concerns in the region. The airline had first halted its flights on February 28 and has extended the pause multiple times in response to explosions in Doha, the Qatari capital, linked to the broader US-Israeli military strikes targeting Iran.

Qatar Airways emphasized that passenger safety remains its top priority, and it is closely monitoring developments before resuming normal operations. Travelers are advised to check for updates and follow official guidance from the airline and local authorities.
