EgyptAir has decided to suspend its flights from Cairo to Doha and back starting tomorrow, Tuesday, until further notice, in compliance with the Egyptian Ministry of Civil Aviation's decision to halt all flights between Egypt and Qatar.

In a related development, EgyptAir flight MS935, an Airbus A321-200, took off a short while ago from Cairo to Doha and is scheduled to return this evening.

A second flight, MS1937, an Airbus A330-200, also departed today at 6:00 p.m. and will return to Cairo at 1:00 a.m. tomorrow, Tuesday.

The company said in a statement today that when the route resumes operation, tickets will be accepted without any fees, and any developments will be announced in due course.
