Air France has canceled its flights to Dubai and Riyadh for the next week due to the regional escalation, according to a report by N12's Dean Fisher (Mon 21:44). The one-week duration was not specified in an earlier report (Mon 21:36) which first noted the cancellations.
The airline had previously suspended flights to Israel through June 21, as The Zioneer reported (Mon 20:40). Broader travel disruptions have been reported (Mon 16:48) amid the security escalation. The cancellation of the Gulf routes, which are not directly over Israel, suggests the airline is responding to wider regional risks.
What remains open: Whether the one-week cancellation will be extended, and whether other airlines will enact similar measures.
