Why book

Northern ICN–BOM routing over China and Central Asian FIRs before descending into India. Geometrically shorter but carries airspace_score 1 due to Central Asian corridor congestion and Iranian FIR proximity on the final western descent into BOM. The southern routing via South China Sea and Bay of Bengal is preferred for its clean advisory profile.

The catch

Goes close to a warning area but does not cross it

Worth knowing

Monitor Kazakhstan FIR (UAAA) and Pakistan FIR (OPKR) EASA notices. Approach into BOM from the northwest crosses near the Iranian FIR boundary — verify IRI advisory status.
