A large number of UAE residents travel during summer to their home countries and cooler climes.

UAE residents have started resuming travel plans after a ceasefire to the Iran-Israel war was announced following recent geopolitical tensions in the region, including an Iranian strike on a US base in Qatar.

Most UAE airlines fully resumed their scheduled operations a few hours after the Iranian attack.

In its latest update on June 25, Sharjah-based Air Arabia said as regional airspace continues to open, it is gradually resuming operations on previously suspended flights.

“Sharjah Airport urges passengers to arrive at the airport three hours before their flight to avoid any potential delays in completing travel procedures. Passengers are also advised to communicate with their airlines in advance to verify flight times and any updates,” it said on Saturday.

Sharjah Airport Authority (SAA) assured that it has intensified efforts around the clock with teams and customer service staff working to provide necessary support, respond to passenger inquiries, and guide them in using the airport's smart services and innovative technologies with ease.
