Dubai and Abu Dhabi travellers are being advised to check their flight status before heading to airports this Friday, as multiple delays have been reported due to regional tensions. Emirates, Etihad, Air Arabia and flydubai are among the airlines experiencing disruptions. The UAE has suspended flights operated by Iranian airlines until further notice, and the global average jet fuel price has risen by 7.4% week-on-week, adding pressure to the aviation industry.
Regional security concerns remain a factor, with Iran urging the US to return to a memorandum of understanding and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Passengers should monitor airline updates closely and allow extra time at airports, as the situation is fluid and flight schedules may change at short notice.
