Airlines flying from the UK to Australia and the Far East will be forced to reroute jets to avoid flying over Russian airspace amid the conflict in the region after the invasion of Ukraine.
Moscow banned UK airlines from its airports and airspace in retaliation to similar moves announced by UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson yesterday.
A Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) warning across Ukraine and parts of Russia has been issued instructing pilots to avoid the area and route around it.
