AMSTERDAM,— KLM Royal Dutch Airlines said in a statement Tuesday that it will continue suspending flights to several Middle East destinations, including the United Arab Emirates, until at least mid-July.
The Dutch carrier, part of airline group Air France KLM, stated that flights to and from Dubai will remain halted until at least August 2.
Services to Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh and Dammam are also suspended and will not resume before July 12.
KLM halted these routes on March 1 because of the war in Iran and the resulting attacks across the region.
The airline had previously announced that the affected services would stay suspended until at least June 28, 2026.
