This overland corridor ranks better than routes crossing the active advisory zone directly, but alternatives avoiding the region entirely would have clearer airspace. Compare options with your airline.

  • Northern track transits Pakistan FIR (OPKR) — airspace_score 1; EASA advisories apply.
  • Arabian Sea direct routing avoids Pakistan FIR entirely and is the standard industry choice.
  • Distance difference is marginal (~60 km); advisory risk difference is significant.
  • Some seasonal Air India and IndiGo filings use this track; Emirates uses Arabian Sea.
