Global airlines are forced to cancel their flights or take costly detours after EU banned Russian airlines and Moscow retaliated by closing its airspace to 36 countries
Airlines are bracing for a potentially lengthy sanctions war after the EU banned Russian airlines and Moscow retaliated by closing its airspace to 36 countries. The rerouting meant Kazakhstan's airspace saw a tripling of flights to more than 450.
The tit-for-tat move is to affect carriers of Albania, Austria, Anguilla, Belgium, Bulgaria, British Virgin Islands, Great Britain, Hungary, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Jersey, Ireland, Iceland, Spain, Italy, Canada, the Greek-administered Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Finland, France, Croatia, Czechia, Sweden, Estonia, and Denmark, including Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
"Due to the ongoing dramatic developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Lufthansa will no longer use Russian airspace," Lufthansa Cargo said.
