Singapore Airlines (SIA) has announced that it will continue to cancel flights between Singapore and Dubai until February 2027, due to the ongoing geopolitical situation in the Middle East. The airline suspended operations of flights SQ494 (Singapore to Dubai) and SQ495 (Dubai to Singapore) on October 30, with the latest extension announced in a Facebook advisory on the same day.
SIA stated that the situation remains fluid, and other SIA flights may also be affected. The carrier expressed apologies to affected customers for the inconvenience caused, offering a full refund for unused portions of tickets. Passengers with bookings made through SIA can contact the airline for refunds, while those who booked through other platforms should reach out to their respective travel agents or partner airlines directly.
The flight disruptions commenced following the US and Israeli strikes on Iran in February, with tensions in the region escalating after Iran-allied Houthis targeted various sites in Saudi Arabia, including airports and oil facilities.
