Verify Flights to South Asia and Europe with Thai Airways

Rewritten Article:

Lockdown in the skies above the border between Pakistan and India has got Thai Airways International (THAI) worried, as South Asian and European flight schedules may be disrupted.

Air waves silence, as THAI announced last night that their journeys to India remain unaltered, but a potential hitch looms for the Pakistan-bound flight routes. Flights to European destinations could need an additional 30 to 40 minutes due to altered flight paths, the airline warned.

THAI operates flights to Lahore, Islamabad, and Karachi in Pakistan. Word has it that the Indian-Pakistinian airspace has been closed till Saturday.

In light of this, THAI encourages passengers headed to India, Pakistan, and Europe to scrutinize the most recent information on their Facebook page or contact their Thailand-based call center at 02-356-1111. Their global contact center is located at (+1) 647 492 4490.

Of late, THAI, much like other airlines, has been forced to juggle their flight routes due to the mounting tensions that erupted after India carried out a strike on Pakistan on Wednesday and Pakistan countered by shooting down some Indian aircraft.
