Korean Air said Wednesday it will extend the suspension of its Incheon-Dubai flights through March 28 due to ongoing military conflict in the Middle East.
Its KE951 and KE952 flights between Korea's Incheon and the United Arab Emirates' Dubai have been suspended since Feb. 28, when the airline brought back KE951 and canceled KE952 following U.S. and Israeli air strikes on Iran.
The suspension of the Incheon-Dubai route had originally been scheduled to be lifted this coming Sunday, but the company decided to extend the measure for two more weeks as the Dubai authorities have notified it of an extended flight ban.
The carrier said it will decide whether to resume operations after that date based on the situation.
Korean Air is the only Korean carrier operating regular flights between Incheon and Dubai.
