Lufthansa Group airlines and Air India have suspended flights to Riyadh following renewed threats from Yemen’s Houthi movement. The Houthis claimed responsibility for an attack on the airport in the Saudi capital, prompting the airlines to take precautionary measures. Lufthansa stated its flights to Riyadh are suspended through October 16th, citing “current developments in the Middle East.” Air India cancelled all flights to Riyadh until October 10th. These suspensions reflect growing concerns over aviation safety in the region amid escalating tensions. The decision impacts travel to and from the Saudi capital during a period of increased regional instability. Both airlines cited security concerns as the primary reason for the temporary service disruptions.
