Emirates and Qatar Airways are among the worst-affected airlines as the conflict in Iran shutters airports across the Middle East, throwing the global aviation industry into chaos.
The two carriers each canceled more than 400 flights as of 10 p.m. New York time Sunday, according to FlightAware. India’s IndiGo, which flies to destinations including Dubai, Jeddah and Doha, was the hardest-hit non-Middle Eastern carrier.
Dubai International Airport and Doha’s Hamad International Airport — which have both suspended all flight operations — were the hardest hit airports, according to FlightAware. Dubai’s main airport, Emirates’ home base, had more than 600 departing flights cancelled. Other regional airports affected by the conflict included Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion International and Jeddah’s King Abdulaziz International.
