Pakistan Extends Airspace Ban For Indian Aircraft Till Oct 24

Pakistan on Wednesday extended the airspace ban for Indian aircraft for another month, according to the country's airports authority. 

Pakistan and India imposed matching airspace restrictions on each other's airlines after the Pahalgam terrorist attack in April 2025. "Pakistan airspace not available for Indian registered aircraft and aircraft



operated/owned or leased by Indian airlines/operators, including military flights," a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) issued by the Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA) said.

The extension came into effect at 10:45 am on Wednesday and will remain until 04:59 am on Oct 24, 2026, it stated. The measure came as the previous extension of the ban was set to expire on September 24.
