The Government of Pakistan has announced a two-day closure of its airspace along the border with India, citing operational and security-related measures. The decision, confirmed by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), will impact several domestic and international flight routes operating through eastern air corridors.
Officials stated that the closure is a temporary precaution and that alternative routes have been arranged to minimize disruption for passengers. Airlines have been instructed to reschedule or reroute affected flights during the closure period.
Sources within the aviation sector indicated that maintenance and air defense coordination activities are planned during this time, though no official details have been released.
Normal operations are expected to resume once the restrictions are lifted after two days, pending final clearance from aviation and defense authorities.
