Emirates March 2 Update: Limited Flights Restart Today

Emirates (EK) says it will begin operating a limited number of flights starting the evening of March 2, prioritizing customers with earlier bookings; rebooked customers will be contacted directly and should not go to the airport unless notified.

Suspensions Remain

The UAE flag carrier says all other flights remain suspended until further notice as the airline continues to monitor regional airspace conditions and will publish updates on its official channels.

Eligible customers can rebook on alternate flights (EK notes travel on/before March 20) or request a refund (process differs for direct vs travel-agent bookings). EK also urges customers to confirm contact details in Manage Your Booking.

Reuters reports UAE carriers are resuming a limited number of flights largely tied to repatriation/repositioning while the region’s airspace remains highly constrained.
