SWISS prolongs its suspension of flights to key Gulf destinations like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Dammam until March 10, with some services extending into late March or April amid escalating Middle East tensions. Triggered by U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran and retaliatory actions, Gulf states restrict airspace, grounding thousands of flights and stranding travelers in luxury resorts and airport hotels.
