Air India has announced a temporary reduction and suspension of several international flights between June and August 2026 due to rising jet fuel prices and airspace restrictions linked to the escalating US-Iran conflict.
The airline stated that flights to destinations across North America, Europe, Australia, Southeast Asia and SAARC nations will be affected. Some routes have been suspended entirely, while others will operate with reduced frequency.
