Airspace closures and heightened security measures across parts of the region have forced airlines to reroute or suspend certain international services, affecting long-haul travel between Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Evolving security situation
Meanwhile, Cape Town Tourism said the evolving security situation and associated airspace restrictions have had a knock-on effect on international travel routes.
The organisation has advised travellers in Cape Town to confirm their flight status directly with their airline, travel agent or the airport before departing for the airport.
Passengers affected by cancellations or delays are encouraged to contact their travel agencies or airlines to arrange rebooking and obtain further assistance.
Cape Town Tourism said it is closely monitoring developments and remains in contact with key aviation and tourism stakeholders as the situation unfolds.
