Air India, IndiGo, Air India Express and Akasa Air have extended flight cancellations to Saudi Arabia amid heightened security concerns following attacks claimed by Yemen’s Houthi group on targets in the kingdom. The airlines had initially suspended flights connecting Saudi cities until October 17, but have now extended cancellations on several routes, with suspensions running until October 20–24, depending on the airline and destination. The move is expected to disrupt travel plans, with passengers advised to check for the latest updates from their airlines. #SaudiArabia# #AirIndia# #IndiGo# #AkasaAir# #FlightCancellations#
