Pakistan has reopened its airspace to all civilian and commercial flights after reaching a ceasefire agreement with India, following days of heightened military tensions and cross-border shelling. The move restores normal flight operations at airports nationwide, signalling a return to stability after a period of disruption.
In a statement issued on Saturday, the Pakistan Airports Authority said a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) had been released, confirming the restoration of the country’s airspace for all types of flight operations. All airports across the country are now fully functional and available for routine services.
The move comes shortly after both nuclear-armed neighbours agreed to uphold a 2003 ceasefire along the Line of Control (LoC), following intense military exchanges that had disrupted air traffic and raised fears of wider conflict.
Authorities have advised travellers to check directly with their airlines for the latest flight schedules, as normal operations resume across Pakistan.
The reopening of the airspace marks a significant de-escalation in regional tensions and a return to normalcy for thousands of affected passengers and carriers.
