A total of 54 flights from Dhaka to various Middle Eastern destinations were canceled between Saturday and Sunday noon, according to Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport Executive Director Group Captain S M Raqib Samad. The cancellations were prompted by temporary airspace closures and heightened security risks following U.S.-Israel attacks in Iran, leaving many passengers stranded and uncertain about their travel plans.
Airport officials said that several Middle Eastern countries, including Bahrain, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar, had temporarily closed their airspace in response to the situation in Iran. As a result, flights from Dhaka to these destinations were suspended. However, Biman Bangladesh Airlines announced that two previously canceled flights to Madinah and Jeddah would now depart on Sunday afternoon and evening, respectively.
US-Bangla Airlines stated that its flights to Riyadh, Jeddah, and Muscat would operate as scheduled, while services to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Doha remain suspended until conditions improve. The airline advised passengers to arrive at the airport four hours before departure.
