IndiGo has extended suspensions on flights to and from four Saudi cities, citing safety and security considerations, with the latest end date set for Nov. 30.

The airline’s Nov. 10 notice sets two cutoffs: Riyadh and Dammam service remains suspended through Nov. 30, while flights serving Jeddah and Madinah are paused through Nov. 21. The suspensions cover travel in both directions.

IndiGo said it is contacting affected travelers using the details on their reservations and will continue sharing updates and providing assistance. The changes add to earlier route disruptions described in EconoTimes’ coverage of Saudi flight cancellations, which cited Manorama Online reporting on IndiGo suspensions through Oct. 24.

European aviation authorities maintained conflict-zone warnings for the Gulf and nearby airspace through Nov. 16.
