Air France has pushed back its Dubai flights again. The airline now plans to resume service no earlier than September 15, after previously expecting to restart after September 8. The extension is due to ongoing security concerns and conditions in the regional airspace. Flights to Beirut are suspended until September 24. Services to Tel Aviv and Riyadh are unaffected and continue to operate.
