When COVID was causing chaos I recall airlines allowing great flexibility in itineraries to help get passengers to their destinations.
And I expect the same to happen now

I should have been flying right now: KTI-DOH yesterday as part of my current RTW and then today a separate ticket DOH-NBO. But both flights were cancelled.
I have rescheduled the KTI-DOH to next week, and have cancelled the onward flight
If the airspace shutdown lasts too long I will request a free re-route (KTI-LHR via either HKG or KUL)
