Canada and UK issue travel warnings as Abha airport flight cancellations enter second day

Passengers face a second consecutive day of flight cancellations at Abha International Airport after recent Houthi missile and drone strikes. Flydubai, Air Arabia, and Saudia were among the airlines forced to cancel services connecting Abha with major hubs like Dubai, Sharjah, Riyadh, and Jeddah.

In response to the volatile security situation, Canada and the UK have updated their travel advisories, urging citizens to avoid non-essential travel to Abha International Airport and areas within 30 kilometers of the Yemen border due to the elevated risk of aerial attacks.
