Five UAE-based carriers have suspended all flights to and from Doha
Since the UAE govt’s announcement that it would cut diplomatic ties with Qatar earlier this month, 5 UAE-based carriers have suspended all flights to and from Doha. The suspension came into effect June 6 and is until further notice. The move came as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Egypt said they would sever diplomatic ties with Qatar amid escalating tensions and accusations that Doha sponsors terrorism. Commercial carriers such as Emirates, Etihad Airways, flydubai, and Air Arabia, as well as Royal Jet, the private flight service provider, all suspended their flights to and from Qatar. On top of that, the UAE banned all international flights serving Doha from flying through its airspace. The General Civil Aviation Authority June 8 said the UAE’s airspace will be closed to any aircraft flying to and from Doha. <br/>
