Due to the latest aggression against Airport Riyadh (RUH) in SA last week, several airlines cancelled operations into SA Airports while EASA updated the CZIB.
- Etihad (EY) announces that flights between 12-13 October 2026 were cancelled between the Airports Abu Dhabi (AUH), Jeddah (JED) and Riyadh (RUH) and that due to the remaining dynamic situations, flight operation updates may change.
- Qatar Airways (QR) notified their clients that its Riyadh (RUH) schedule has been adjusted, and flight status should be checked prior departures.
- Emirates (EK) informed their clients on a booking basis that operations into SA Airport were cancelled, an official statement is currently not available.
They expect this situation to continue until 18 October 2026.
The situation remains highly volatile, flight availability and cargo acceptance can change rapidly, increasing the risk that freight will not be operated on in time or at all.
