Air India A350-1000

Air India has resumed its scheduled operations to destinations across the United States, Canada, Europe and the United Kingdom, while continuing to monitor the evolving situation in the Middle East.

The airline has, however, extended the temporary suspension of all flights to and from Middle Eastern destinations until 2359 hrs IST on March 3, 2026, citing the continued closure of multiple airspaces in the region.

The airline said that the passengers impacted by the suspension will be offered assistance, including alternative travel arrangements, full refunds or complimentary rescheduling options. The airline has advised customers to check their flight status via its official website or contact its 24/7 support centre for updates.
