The General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) has confirmed that air traffic across the United Arab Emirates has returned to normal following the removal of temporary precautionary restrictions.

The decision comes after a comprehensive review of operational and security conditions, conducted in coordination with relevant authorities. The regulator emphasised that real-time monitoring of the airspace will continue to ensure safety and rapid response to any new developments.

The GCAA thanked passengers and airlines for their cooperation during the disruption and reiterated that its teams remain fully prepared to manage evolving situations. Travellers were also advised to rely on official channels for accurate updates.
