Flight operations at Dubai International Airport are being restored on a limited basis after a temporary suspension earlier on Monday. The Dubai Civil Aviation Authority reported that selected flights resumed from 10 a.m. local time, following precautionary measures that paused departures from one of the world’s busiest aviation hubs.
The authority introduced the suspension in the early hours of March 16 as a safety precaution, affecting outbound and inbound flights at Dubai International Airport. As the resumption begins, only certain destinations are included, and passengers are advised to check directly with their airlines for the latest updates regarding their specific flights.
Emirates has communicated to customers that those with affected bookings will be notified of cancellations and provided with options for alternative travel arrangements. In response to the disruption, some flights scheduled for Dubai International were diverted to the city’s Al Maktoum International Airport on Monday morning.
