“Cancelled flights due to Kashmir conflict,”
“the Flight between Sweden and Thailand are affected by the escalation of the conflict between India and Pakistan. Routes may be added if since Pakistan closed its airspace.”
“Pakistan claims to have shot down two indian planes, which have flown over the so-called control cut-off in the disputed region of Kashmir, and captured the two pilots. India, in turn, claim to have shot down a pakistani fighter aircraft. As a consequence, Pakistan has closed its airspace to commercial traffic.”
“For the Swedish Thailandsresenärer this has now had consequences.”
“– What I got confirmed is that a flight is cancelled today due to closed airspace in Pakistan. This will have an impact on air traffic, ” says Ellen Laurin, in the state flygplatsbolaget Swedavia’s press office.”
“Norwegian, Tui and Fritidsresor have flights to and from Sweden that are affected on Wednesday.”
“Fredrik Henriksson, head of communications at Ving, explains that an airplane from Thailand to Copenhagen was in the air when the route had to be put on.”
” the Flight was allowed to continue along the arabian peninsula and land in Varna in Bulgaria. They needed to change the crew because of the time constraints. It is expected to be about three hours of delay up to Copenhagen, ” he says.”
“Also a departure from Arlanda airport during Wednesday evening is concerned.”
“– We do not expect any delay, but it has a different roadmap, ” says Fredrik Henriksson.”
