Birmingham Flights Cancelled Amid Middle East Conflict

0:00On March 9th, flights from Birmingham Airport face cancellations today, Monday. March 9th amid the Middle East conflict now in its 10th day. Four flights, two and from Dubai and Doha, got scrubbed, including Qatar Airways Departures and Arrivals, plus Emirates runs. Airlines like Emirates are slowly ramping up, but UAE Airspace remains partly shut, limiting full schedules. Travelers should double check with their carrier for the latest on their trips. Travelers are feeling the pinch with many stuck or rerouted. The UK foreign office launched a portal for British nationals in Dubai to book government charter flights out, prioritizing the most vulnerable ones. Who've registered? Earlier this week, charters from Muscat and Oman brought folks back to the UK and a Dubai flight is set for early this week. Meanwhile, the UAE saw fallout too, like a resident killed by falling shrapnel in Dubai on Saturday, March 7th. Officials keep watching the skies closely.
