Pakistan has extended the suspension of its airspace for Indian airlines until October 24, the Civil Aviation Authority announced on Friday. According to a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) issued by Pakistan’s Civil Aviation, the country’s airspace will remain closed to all aircraft owned, operated, or leased by Indian airlines and operators. The ban includes military flights as well. The restriction took effect from September 19 and will continue until October 24 at 4:59 am. The Civil Aviation Authority clarified that the ban covers all altitudes—from ground level to unlimited heights. Pakistan closed its airspace to Indian airlines in a tit-for-tat response to measures taken by India following the April 22 attack on tourists in Pahalgam in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. The restriction is causing significant losses to Indian airlines, that have to take much longer routes to reach destinations in the Middle East, Europe, and the United States.
