UAE suspends all Iranian airline flights until further notice
General Civil Aviation Authority announces suspension of Iranian airlines’ flights to, from UAE
The General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) in Abu Dhabi has announced the suspension of all flights operated by Iranian airlines, both inbound and outbound to and from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This decision, effective immediately on Thursday, September 24, stems from the US ban imposed on Iranian airlines from using airports across various nations globally.
The GCAA emphasized that the suspension is a response to the broader US restrictions on Iranian airlines and not a unilateral action by the UAE. They assured that they will remain vigilant to inform the public and relevant authorities about any changes or developments concerning the resumption of normal air traffic between the two nations.
The GCAA has advised the public to rely solely on official and authorized sources for updates on the situation. In a separate development, the UAE has also announced a suspension of all trade and financial transactions with Iran, pending further notice.
