On Monday (June 23, 2025), Air India temporarily suspended operations to these regions in the wake of the rising tensions in the West Asia. Some countries in the region had also closed their airspaces.

"Some flights may experience delays or cancellations due to consequential impacts and extended re-routings/flight times, but we are committed to minimising disruptions and our restoring schedule integrity.

“Air India will continue to avoid airspaces assessed as unsafe at any given time,” the airline said on Tuesday (June 24, 2025).
