Flights between the UK and key Middle East hubs were thrown into chaos after operations were suspended at Dubai International Airport and Hamad International Airport amid escalating regional tensions. Airlines including British Airways, Emirates, Qatar Airways and Etihad Airways cancelled or rerouted services, leaving travellers stranded. Airspace closures across parts of the Gulf triggered widespread disruption, with further delays expected. The UK Foreign Office has urged passengers to monitor travel advice and check directly with airlines as the situation develops.
