Key points
- Pakistan has prolonged its airspace ban on Indian planes until April 24, keeping a major aviation restriction in place.
- The move continues to affect regional flight operations and reflects ongoing bilateral strain.
Pakistan has extended its restriction on Indian airlines and Indian-registered aircraft using its airspace until April 24, prolonging a measure that has remained in force for nearly a year. The continuation was confirmed through aviation authorities and the latest notice to airmen.
The decision keeps a key regional aviation restriction in place at a time of strained ties and continuing operational disruption for Indian carriers. The ban affects routing options and adds pressure to flight planning, costs and scheduling on affected sectors.
For Pakistan, the extension underscores how civil aviation remains tied to broader political tensions, with the airspace policy continuing to serve as a visible indicator of unresolved bilateral friction.
