Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has adjusted several international flight routes following airspace restrictions imposed by Iran in response to escalating Israeli aggression in the region. The move has affected PIA flights to destinations including Toronto, Paris, and several Gulf nations.
A spokesperson for the airline confirmed that flights to Gulf countries such as Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and the UAE are now operating through Omani airspace. These flights are being directed via the Muscat Flight Information Region to ensure passenger safety and avoid restricted zones.

PIA assured travelers that it is closely monitoring the situation and will continue to make adjustments as necessary, depending on developments in regional airspace conditions.
