Dubai – Mubasher: Emirates Airlines announced on Thursday the suspension of all flights to Pakistan until May 10, 2025, due to ongoing uncertainty surrounding the access to the country's airspace and airports.

Emirates Airlines has clarified that passengers bound for Pakistan or on connecting flights there will not be allowed to travel until further notice, and has urged passengers whose flights have been canceled not to go to the airport, according to Al Bayan newspaper.

Travelers affected by the decision are urged to contact their travel agents to reschedule their plans, or contact the airline if they booked directly through it .

The company confirmed that it is closely monitoring the situation and will post any operational updates on its website. It also stressed the importance of checking flight status on the "Flight Status" page on its official website .
