Lufthansa undgår luftrum over Iran og Irak på grund af protester

På grund af den anspændte sikkerhedssituation i Nær- og Mellemøsten undgår Lufthansa luftrummet over Iran og Irak. Det påvirker alle flyselskaber i gruppen, og returfly til Tel Aviv og Amman planlægges samme dag. Mulige aflysninger af fly undersøges.

Lufthansa har justeret sine flyruter på grund af forhøjede sikkerhedsadvarsler i Nær- og Mellemøsten. Indtil videre undgår flyselskabet luftrummet over Iran og Irak, som en talesperson har oplyst. Det gælder alle flyselskaber i Lufthansa Group. For forbindelser til den israelske by Tel Aviv og den jordanske hovedstad Amman vil returflyene køre samme dag fra torsdag til næste mandag. Det giver besætningerne mulighed for at vende hjem uden overnatning i disse byer. ”Nogle fly” kan også blive annulleret, tilføjede man. Lufthansa Group følger situationen tæt og vil fortsætte med at vurdere den i de kommende dage. Berørte passagerer vil blive kontaktet af deres flyselskab. Tiltagene skyldes løbende protester mod ledelsen i Den Islamiske Republik Iran og deres brutale undertrykkelse af statsmagten. USA’s præsident Donald Trump har gentagne gange truet med indgriben de seneste dage. Onsdag skærpede flere lande deres advarsler: USA beordrede dele af personalet på en flybase i Qatar til at forlade den og opfordrede borgere til at forlade Iran. Tysklands Udenrigsministerium fremhævede en ”extremt volatil sikkerhedssituation i hele regionen” i rejsevejledninger til Qatar og Saudi-Arabien samt mulige begrænsninger i lufttrafikken.
