Travelling during Iran Israel crisis to and from Europe.

[Hummin]

Anyone flying today or the coming week? 

 

The flight corridor starting to get Narrow coming and going to Thailand from Europe. Anyone have any concerns and delays so far? 

[nglodnig]

Flew back to Europe a couple of days ago (Thai Airways) - instead of overflying Iran we took a detour which extended the flight by a good hour at least - went over Pakistan

[Chivas]

If it kicks off big style the distruption will be catastrophic as other countries back one side or the other

 

I've just booked a flight which normally overflys the region albeit some months in advance

[Hummin]

Seems I'm going home when everything heats up again. Hope it will be over in a few days.

I have a transit in Doha in June, I'm sure the IDF will have things taken care of by then.........😁

A friend of mine flew last night via Doha. There was a delay during stopover of 5 hours.

Even back in April, Thai Airways TG916 BKK to LHR avoided flying over Iran (used to go right over). Went to the north of Iran and then over Turkey (to avoid Ukraine area too). Journey time little changed at just over 12 hours.

One of my lads is in Dubai currently with his Girlfriend due back Sunday

He's on Saudia via Jeddah back to Gatwick

 

He messaged this morning asking do you think there will any problems

EVA Air. Last night's flight from LHR to BKK arrived BKK today only 2 minutes late.

 

Today's flight from BKK to LHR departed BKK 2 minutes early and is due to land at LHR in about 40 minutes, which will be 30 minutes ahead of schedule. 

 

I am keeping an eye on things as I will be flying LHR to BKK in 3 weeks time.

[GypsyT]

Very good info - thank you!

 

My trip is within 3 weeks. Maybe best I don't stop at Doha.

[Hummin]

Now India and Pakistan conflict. 
 

The airspace starts to tighten up. 
 

 

[Hummin]

Hope this conflict calm down.

Which route? I must have flown the BKK-SFO route at least a dozen times over the past 10-15 years, changing planes in TPE. Never more than a few minutes late.

It was sarcasm. Sorry you missed it. I have flown EVA exclusively for 10 or 15 years.
