Central Asia Direct Best
Watchful · 68
Near a warning area · Weak reroute options · Minimal extra time

Cathay's standard routing. Transits Central Asian airspace (Kazakhstan/Uzbekistan) which remain open but require monitoring. Fastest option when advisories are stable.

The catch

Very few backup paths if this route is disrupted

Via Dubai
Limited · 47
Through a warning area · Weak reroute options · Moderate extra time

The top option avoids the warning area this route crosses.

Gulf routing avoids Central Asia entirely. HKG–DXB transits South China Sea and Indian subcontinent — avoids the warning area. DXB–CDG is clean. Longer but fully advisory-clear.

The catch

Part of this route goes through a flight warning area

How we score routes

We score each route based on whether it flies near or through warning areas, how much longer it is, and how many reroute options exist — based on official flight warnings.

Some routes aren't covered yet — if yours is missing, that's a gap, not an assessment.

Scores compare route options; they are not safety ratings. Always check with your airline before booking.
