UAE says air traffic back to normal after precautionary measures lifted

On Saturday, the United Arab Emirates resumed normal air traffic operations after lifting precautionary measures that had been in place since February 28.
Restrictions were originally imposed on February 28 following the start of the US-Israeli conflict with Iran, which disrupted regional airspace and prompted safety measures.
The GCAA confirmed the decision followed comprehensive assessment of security conditions, stating, "Following a comprehensive evaluation of operational and security conditions, we have officially lifted the temporary precautionary measures previously in place."
Neighboring nations including Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, and Syria had previously lifted similar restrictions after the United States and Iran agreed to a ceasefire, easing regional travel disruptions.
While the truce remains in effect, the GCAA will continue real-time monitoring to ensure the highest levels of aviation safety for all travelers in the region.
