Dutch airline KLM said on Wednesday it will extend the suspension of flights to Dubai and Saudi Arabia through September 6, from the previously announced end date of August 23.
The Dutch arm of airline group Air France KLM AIRF.PA said it would not fly to Dubai, Riyadh and Dammam due to the situation in the Middle East.
KLM has cancelled these flights since March 1, due to the war in Iran and the subsequent attacks across the region.
