Singapore Airlines, Scoot restart flights over Iran airspace: CNA

SINGAPORE: Singapore Airlines Ltd and its low-cost unit Scoot have resumed flying over Iran after a two-month suspension triggered by the Middle Eastern nation’s attacks on Israel.

Iran’s airspace is frequently utilised by airlines travelling between Europe and India or South-East Asia. The April attacks on Israel complicated flights in one of the most densely traversed regions of the world, forcing airlines to choose lengthy detours.
