UAE airlines are among several cancelling and rerouting flights as tensions between Iran and Israel escalate. Emirates, Etihad Airways and flydubai have scrapped some flights and rerouted others after Jordan, Israel, Lebanon and Iraq temporarily closed airspace after Iran attacked Israel. Etihad, the national airline, cancelled flights to Tel Aviv and Amman on Sunday. It has also rerouted several European and North American flights to avoid closed airspace in the region.
