CX 219 has added two and half hours to its flying time tonight too on its way to Manchester. It left HK on time but will arrive at Manchester at 9am - two and half hours later than expected.

It seems that only Mainland Chinese airlines are flying over Russia now. I wonder if it has to do with insurance issues, as a few other airlines like Emirates and FlyDubai, which will suspend flights to and from Russia too.

All the cargo flights to Europe - London CX 255 & Amsterdam CX 271 are all avoiding Russian airspace too.
