With the reopening of the Qatar airspace, IndiGo on Tuesday announced that it is 'prudently and progressively' resuming operations on routes in Middle East, adding that the airline is monitoring the situation closely to provide safest available flight paths for the travellers.
"As airports across the Middle East gradually reopen, we are prudently and progressively resuming operations on these routes. We continue to monitor the situation closely and are fully considering the safest available flight paths to ensure secure and seamless travel. Please stay updated via our mobile app or website Thank you for your continued understanding and trust," said IndiGo in its travel advisory.
The advisory comes after airlines were on fresh alert late on Monday after Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait closed their countries' airspace temporarily as Iran attacked the Al Udeid U.S. military base in Doha, the latest upheaval to air travel in the Middle East.
Soon after the alleged ceasefire announcement by United States President Trump, a claim denied by Iran, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain on Tuesday started re-opening their airspace.
Earlier, IndiGo announced the suspension of its flights to and from the Middle East due to the 'evolving situation'. In a post on X, the airlines announced that all flights going to and coming from Doha, Dubai, Dammam, Bahrain, Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, Fujairah, Madinah, Muscat, Sharjah, Jeddah, Riyadh, Tbilisi and Ras Al-Khaimah "have been suspended at least until 1000 hrs today".
Ceasefire between Iran and Israel?
U.S. President Donald Trump said that Israel and Iran had agreed to a “complete and total ceasefire" soon after Iran launched a limited missile attack Monday on a U.S. military base in Qatar, retaliating for the American bombing of its nuclear sites. Iran said that as long as Israel stopped its attacks early Tuesday morning, it would halt theirs.
Israel did not immediately acknowledge any ceasefire, but there were no reports of Israeli strikes in Iran after 4 a.m. local. Heavy Israeli strikes continued in Tehran and other cities until shortly before that time. Israel in other conflicts has stepped up its strikes just before ceasefires took effect.
“As of now, there is NO ‘agreement’ on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi wrote in a post on X. “However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards.”
His message was posted at 4:16 a.m. Tehran time. Araghchi added: “The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.”
