Dubai: Small number flights will start operating from both Dubai International and Dubai World Central airport from this evening.

The development was announced by the official X account of the Government of Dubai Media Office.

In its post, the office said, “Dubai Airports confirms that a limited resumption of operations will begin today evening, 2 March, with a small number of flights permitted to operate from Dubai International (DXB) and Dubai World Central – Al Maktoum International (DWC).”

The airport authority also urged travellers not to proceed to the airport unless they have been contacted directly by their airline with a confirmed departure time.

Flight operations at Dubai International and Dubai World Central had been suspended on February 28, after tensions erupted in the Middle East.

Several flights were cancelled or delayed during this period due to the temporary partial closure of UAE airspace.

Meanwhile, Dubai’s flag carrier Emirates said it will begin operating a limited number of flights starting Monday evening.

In a post on X on the evening of March 2, Emirates said, “We are accommodating customers with earlier bookings as a priority, and those who have been rebooked to travel on these limited flights will be contacted directly by Emirates. Please do not go to the airport unless you have been notified.”

The airline added, “All other flights remain suspended until further notice. Emirates continues to monitor the situation, and we will develop our operational schedule accordingly.” Emirates also announced that it would restart limited operations with eight flights.

The Dubai Media Office also shared an update regarding flydubai. In its post, it said, “flydubai will operate a limited number of flights on the evening of 02 March 2026. Customers are advised to update their contact details via Manage Your Booking and check flight status at flydubai.com before travelling to the airport.”

According to global flight tracking website FlightRadar24, a total of 15 Etihad Airways passenger aircraft took off from Abu Dhabi within a three-hour window. The website noted that these departures were likely aimed at clearing transit passengers who had been stranded since the start of the conflict.

FlightRadar24 also reported that other aircraft departing Abu Dhabi on the same day included two Etihad Airways cargo aircraft, two IndiGo Airbus A320 aircraft, which were likely operating without passengers, and one Lufthansa A380 that departed after maintenance.

However, according to official information from Etihad Airways, all flights to and from Abu Dhabi remain suspended until 14:00 UAE time on Tuesday, March 3.
