IndiGo has extended the suspension of its flights to four Saudi cities, advising affected travelers to check their bookings for updates this month. The change was announced in a travel advisory on 10 November.

Jeddah and Madinah are affected with services paused until 21 November 2026 (inclusive), while Riyadh and Dammam remain suspended until 30 November 2026 (inclusive). The airline notes that these suspensions were already in force and have been extended again.

Affected customers are being contacted using the booking details provided, and IndiGo offers re-accommodation, refunds, or alternative arrangements as part of the response. The carrier emphasizes that safety of customers and crew remains the highest priority and that it is closely monitoring the situation.

The extension comes amid regional security concerns following attacks claimed by Yemen’s Houthi group against Saudi targets. IndiGo cites a careful assessment of safety and security considerations as the basis for continuing the suspensions and communications with travelers.

Travelers are urged to check flight status before heading to the airport, as dates have shifted previously. The carrier also advises ensuring contact details are current so notices reach passengers promptly and to consider flexible options if travel before end of November is planned.
