Airspace warnings · Flight options

This southern routing avoids some busier corridors but passes through airspace with an active advisory. Alternative paths may have different disruption profiles. Compare options with your airline before deciding.

  • Routes further south over the Indian peninsula versus the direct subcontinent path — equivalent advisory clearance.
  • Sri Lanka FIR (VCCC) transit is operationally clean and well-coordinated.
  • Bay of Bengal crossing into Singapore FIR follows a slightly more southerly track — both are advisory-clean.
  • Adds ~10–15 minutes versus direct subcontinent routing; used by some seasonal and charter filings.
Airspace Some

This route passes through the airspace over the United Arab Emirates, where airlines are officially told to stay out of the airspace over the waters of the Gulf at every altitude and to take extra care over land. The airspace is open and flights are running normally — the warning is about the advice, not about delays.
