Air France has announced the extension of its suspension of flights to the Middle East, particularly to destinations like Dubai and Riyadh, until at least next Tuesday. The airline's decision comes amid ongoing conflicts in the region, which have raised concerns about passenger safety. The company has indicated that flights from the emirate may remain suspended until Wednesday, while services to Tel Aviv and Beirut are also halted until at least the same day.

The airline stressed that the resumption of services will depend on the evolving security situation on the ground, which is currently unpredictable due to the ongoing war in Iran. Air France reiterated that the flight suspensions only apply to commercial flights, and do not affect potential special repatriation flights organized by the French government to aid its citizens.

This decision highlights the cautious approach of Air France in response to the volatile situation in the Middle East, as airlines and travelers continue to navigate the implications of geopolitical tensions on air travel safety. As the situation develops, the airline remains vigilant and committed to ensuring the safety of its passengers before any return to normal operations in the region.
