I would have thought that unless they cancel, the options you have will depend on the ticket conditions, nothing more nothing less.

How do we check that? My family is concerned as I am scheduled to fly in March. I don't think the conflict is resolved by then.

I would think though that EY would take a sensible point of view in regards to safety of its passengers and employees.

Flightrader 24 and others clearly show that in the last two days most flights are being rerouted away from the area. In fact I just looked and there is only one EY flight in the airspace., Baku to Abu Dhabi.

Looking at EY45 and 42 (AUH - DUB and vice versa) and both fly over Iraqi airspace...
Edit: Checked a few more dates on Flightradar, and seems last night / current flights did go over Iraq. The previous flights took the Saudi route (on 12 Jan) - other dates switch between Iraqi and Saudi airspace routes depending on if its AUH - DUB or DUB - AUH. A bit concerning imho.
