Air travel across the Middle East is facing major disruptions as Oman Air announced the cancellation of several flights due to ongoing regional airspace closures linked to escalating geopolitical tensions. The move reflects a wider aviation crisis unfolding across the Gulf as airlines scramble to adjust routes, suspend services and ensure passenger safety.
The cancellations come amid rising instability triggered by the conflict involving Iran, the United States and Israel, which has led multiple countries in the region to temporarily close or restrict their airspace. Airlines throughout the Middle East and beyond have been forced to suspend or reroute flights as a precaution.
