The Qatar Civil Aviation Authority (QCAA) has announced the temporary suspension of all air traffic in Qatari airspace as a precautionary measure, emphasizing its commitment to maintaining the highest levels of safety and security for all flights. This decision comes amid the latest regional developments, and QCAA is actively monitoring the situation while coordinating with relevant authorities.
As a result, Qatar Airways has confirmed that its flights to and from Hamad International Airport remain temporarily suspended until midnight UTC. The airline is working closely with government stakeholders and authorities to resume normal operations as soon as the airspace reopens.
Passengers should anticipate delays when flights resume and are advised to check the latest information on the Qatar Airways website or via the Qatar Airways app. To assist affected travellers, additional ground staff have been deployed at Hamad International Airport and other key airports. Qatar Airways is also offering passengers the option to refund or change flights scheduled within the next seven days, ensuring minimal disruption during this period.
The airline reaffirmed that the safety and well-being of its passengers and crew remain its top priority and apologized for any inconvenience caused by the temporary airspace closure.
