Qatar Airways Resumes Flights as Airspace Reopens |Qatar Airways has officially announced the reinstatement of its full flight schedule following the reopening of Qatari airspace, which had been temporarily closed due to recent attacks on key infrastructure by Iran.
In a statement issued on June 23, the airline confirmed that it is working closely with government authorities to restore operations swiftly and ensure that passengers reach their destinations safely and efficiently.
“Our focus at this time is to help our passengers return home or reach their onward journey safely and smoothly,” the statement noted.
The airline emphasised that it has deployed additional ground staff at Hamad International Airport and other major hubs to support affected passengers, minimise disruptions, and provide the highest level of care and assistance.
The temporary closure of airspace was a direct response to a military escalation in the region, with strategic sites in Qatar targeted by Iranian forces. The situation prompted immediate suspension of all commercial air traffic in and out of the country, stranding thousands of travelers and leading to global aviation rerouting.
While operations have now resumed, Qatar Airways has cautioned that significant delays are expected as the airline works to normalize its schedule. Passengers are encouraged to check qatarairways.com or use the airline’s mobile app for the latest updates prior to travel.
“The safety of our passengers and crew is the first and highest priority at all times,” the airline reiterated.
