Passenger flights across the UAE will remain grounded
The spread of Coronavirus through airports is one of the key infection vectors of this outbreak. That is to say, due to this passenger flights across the United Arab Emirates will not fly for the foreseeable future.
Travel restrictions will remain in place until it is safe for movement to begin again. This will help to aid in reducing the spread of Coronavirus. Because this virus has a person to person contact infection vector it is important to reduce elements where this can occur.
