April 19, 2024
Airlines changed flight routes over Iran, cancelling some flights and diverting others to alternative airports or returning planes to their departure points on Friday due to airspace and airport closures and security concerns following the Israeli attack on Iran.
Iran closed its airports in Tehran, Shiraz and Isfahan after the attack and cleared the western part of its airspace of flights for several hours after the attack, according to the flight-tracking website FlightRadar24.
