Middle East Crisis Surges Singapore-Europe Flights

A Middle East crisis, including the U.S.-Israel war against Iran, closes airspace over key hubs like Dubai, sparking a surge in flights from Singapore to Europe as airlines reroute passengers via Southeast Asian airports such as Changi. Singapore Airlines cancels flights to Dubai until March 28 but absorbs redirected traffic alongside Lufthansa, Thai Airways, Malaysia Airlines, and Scoot, boosting demand and fares that soar up to 900% on routes like London to Singapore.
