As the US-Iran conflict enters its 24th day, UAE airlines are operating limited flight schedules due to adverse weather and regional conditions. Passengers are advised to check flight status before traveling and rely on official airline updates.

The UAE has responded to incoming missile and drone threats from Iran, urging residents to stay in safe locations and follow official updates. Multiple airlines have issued advisories and cancellations, including IndiGo, Philippine Airlines, and Cathay Pacific.

Oil prices have surged over 50% since late February, with Brent crude trading near $113 a barrel and West Texas Intermediate near $99. The conflict has raised fears of supply disruptions and stoked concerns over global inflation and financial market turmoil.

The US and its allies have accused Iran of launching missile and drone strikes on American interests in the region, while Iran has accused Gulf countries of allowing US forces to launch attacks from their territory.
