Germany’s Lufthansa Group has announced an extension of its flight suspensions to Tel Aviv, Tehran, Beirut, Amman, and Erbil. The suspension now includes flights up to and including August 26.
This decision affects several carriers within the group, including Swiss International Air Lines, Austrian Airlines, and Eurowings. The move is a precautionary measure amid growing concerns about escalating tensions in the Middle East.
Additionally, Lufthansa will avoid Iranian and Iraqi airspace through the same date. This step is intended to mitigate potential risks associated with the regional unrest.
