Airspace warnings · Flight options
This direct routing avoids the active Russian airspace closure entirely. It does cross the monitored Central Asian Corridor, which carries rerouted traffic from that closure, so connections may face delays even though the airspace itself is flowing.
The Russian airspace closure rerouted this corridor through Central Asia, significantly lengthening the journey. If Russian airspace status changes, this route's path and duration would need re-review.
