Israel-Iran tensions disrupt flights at Bengaluru Airport, passengers stranded
Bengaluru: International flight operations at Kempegowda International Airport were hit on Saturday after escalating tensions between Israel and Iran. The tensions led to widespread airspace restrictions across West Asia, leaving several passengers stranded and uncertain about their onward journeys.
Multiple flights connecting Bengaluru to Gulf hubs and onward destinations in Europe along with the United States were cancelled or rerouted as several countries.
Passengers scheduled to travel to Abu Dhabi, Bahrain and Italy reported abrupt cancellations. Airline staff attributed the disruption to the evolving security situation and closure of key aviation corridors. Some travellers were quoted by Hindustan Times as saying that they were informed that services would resume only after conditions stabilised while no timelines were indicated.
In an advisory posted on social media platform X, the Kempegowda International Airport said certain international flights were experiencing schedule changes due to developments in parts of the Middle East. A dedicated help desk had been set up at the kerbside of Terminal 2 to assist affected passengers with information and guidance.
According to the Ministry of Civil Aviation, hundreds of flights nationwide were expected to be cancelled due to the airspace curbs. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation has been coordinating with airlines to facilitate passenger support.
Aviation experts cited by the Hindustan Times, indicated that disruptions could persist if airspace restrictions remain in place, affecting travel plans for passengers flying out of Bengaluru in the coming days.
