Key message:
In response to recent events in India & Pakistan, we have issued an official statement that may be used during any conversations you have with customers who are concerned about travelling to the area.
Official Statement:
We continue to operate all our flights.
Like all airlines flying to and from Asia, we are re-routing around Pakistani airspace and this will lead to minor delays for a handful of flights.
We continue to monitor the situation and would never operate a flight unless it was safe to do so.
For your background guidance - the majority of the flights affected have extra flights times of around half an hour.
