flynas is operating and advertises September Gulf travel, including Bahrain and Dubai, while its advisory warns of possible schedule changes.
Here is what’s suspended, what’s still operating, and how to check your flight.
Is flynas Operating Right Now?
Yes. flynas publishes domestic and international flight offers. Its current travel advisory says some scheduled flights may change because of airspace closures at certain destinations.
EASA’s current Gulf advisory distinguishes maritime airspace restrictions from necessary airport arrivals and departures. Check your flight status before travelling.
Which flynas Routes Are Suspended or Available?
Current evidence differs by route:
- UAE: flynas advertises Dammam–Dubai (DXB) travel on 29 September 2026. September resumption dates for Dubai World Central (DWC), Abu Dhabi (AUH) and Sharjah (SHJ) could not be verified.
- Bahrain: Riyadh–Bahrain (BAH) fares are displayed for 7–10 September 2026; this is not a blanket suspension
- Kuwait: September resumption of Kuwait (KWI) flights could not be verified; the Riyadh–Kuwait offer calendar showed no dated September fares in the checked period
- Iraq: September resumption of Iraqi destinations, including Erbil (EBL) and Baghdad (BGW), could not be verified
Displayed fares are recently collected offers, not confirmation that a flight has operated or that seats remain available.
The current advisory does not give a route-by-route suspension list. Monitor flynas’s travel advisory page for updates.
