Emirates resumes limited flights after temporary suspension on Monday

Emirates has resumed limited operations following a temporary suspension earlier on Monday morning, 16 March 2026. The airline is operating a restricted schedule and monitoring developments to adjust its operational plans as the situation evolves.

Some flights scheduled for the day have been cancelled. Affected customers will receive cancellation notifications and details of available rebooking options, according to a post on Emirates’ X account.

Passengers should check flight status before heading to the airport. Those connecting through Dubai will be permitted to travel only if their onward flight is operating.

The airline also stressed that passengers should not travel to the airport without a confirmed booking and should monitor their email for flight cancellations or changes before departure. Emirates said it continues to follow the situation closely, with passenger and crew safety and security remaining its highest priorities.
