NEW DELHI: India and Pakistan have extended closure of airspace for each other's airlines by a month till 5.29am (IST) on June 24. Earlier notices to airmen (NOTAM) - the official order through which the restrictions are clamped - issued by both countries were to expire on May 24.
Indian carriers' flights from north India, mainly Delhi, are taking a longer route to and from the west. Since the pause in conflict following Operation Sindoor, many foreign carriers have resumed overflying Pakistan between west and east, including India.
The fresh NOTAM issued by India Friday said: "Indian airspace not available for Pakistan registered aircraft and aircraft operated/owned/ or leased by Pakistan airlines/operators, including military flights till June 24, 5.29 am (IST)".
Pakistan's fresh NOTAM was similarly worded: "Pakistan airspace not available for Indian registered aircraft and aircraft operated/owned or leased by Indian airlines/operators including military flights."
