IndiGo cancels flights to and from Saudi destinations including Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Madinah as tensions related to Houthi activity in the region continue. The airline suspends these services until October 17, 2026, and advises passengers to check their flight status before arriving at airports.
Other Indian carriers also announce disruptions linked to the same situation. NDTV reports that Air India cancels flights to Riyadh until October 15, and that additional airlines—Air India Express and Akasa Air—make cancellations affecting Saudi routes. Outlets note the measures are based on the “evolving situation” and are intended to manage travel risk while authorities and conditions develop.
The reports collectively focus on route cancellations and revised schedules rather than specific incidents, with airlines urging passengers to monitor updates and plan alternative travel where possible.
