"Turkish Airlines has cancelled the majority of its Middle East flights until the end of March, as the conflict between the US and Iran continues to wreak havoc on international travel."
"The Middle Eastern market accounts for roughly 6% of Turkish Airlines' business, with the operator ordinarily running 100 flights per day in the region."
"Flights to Doha, Dubai, Bahrain, Kuwait and Dammam have also been impacted by the restrictions, while flights from other airlines were forced to ground and reroute in Turkey following drone attacks."
"Some of our flights to/from the following destinations have been cancelled: Bahrain, Dammam and Riyadh (Saudi Arabia), Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Syria and United Arab Emirates."
Turkish Airlines has cancelled most of its Middle East flights until the end of March due to the US-Iran conflict affecting international travel. The airline typically operates 100 flights daily in the region but is currently running about 35. The joint venture SunExpress is also affected, with flights to key destinations suspended. Turkish Airlines has extended its UK operations, opening a new base at London Stansted. Flight cancellations include routes to Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan, with ongoing monitoring of the airspace situation.
