If you’re flying soon, read this first…
Emirates has extended the suspension of all scheduled flights to and from Dubai until 23:59 UAE time on March 7, 2026
The move follows continued regional airspace closures across the Middle East amid escalating tensions.
Do not go to the airport unless:
-
You’ve been directly contacted by Emirates
-
You hold a confirmed booking on one of the limited operating flights
Transit passengers connecting through Dubai will only be accepted if their onward flight is confirmed as operational.
Also worth noting: All Emirates city check-in locations in Dubai are temporarily closed until further notice.
Are any flights operating?
While most scheduled services remain grounded, Emirates is running a strictly limited schedule for:
-
Repatriation flights

Cargo operations
Passengers with existing bookings are being prioritised.
If Your Flight Was Cancelled, Here Are Your Options
-
Rebooking: Travel can be rescheduled on or before March 27, 2026
-
Refunds: Full refunds are available for tickets booked on or before March 12, 2026
If you booked through a travel agent, you’ll need to contact them directly.
If you booked via the Emirates website, use the Manage Your Booking tool to update your details and receive live alerts.
