Turkey extends most Mideast flight cancellations 
Mar 11, 2026 6:00 AM

ANKARA, March 2 (Reuters) - Turkey canceled all Iran,

Iraq, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon flights until Friday over

attacks in the region, while all planned flights to Qatar,

Kuwait, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates were canceled until

Tuesday.

On the other hand, Transport and Infrastructure Minister

Abdulkadir Uraloglu said on Monday that flights would resume to

Saudi Arabia's Riyadh, Jeddah and Medina airports, as well as to

Oman.

A Turkish Airlines and a Pegasus Airlines planes were

grounded in Tehran, and personnel from the two airlines were

safely brought back to Turkey, he said, adding other personnel

from Turkish airlines in Qatar, Bahrain, and the UAE were not at

risk.
