Oct 8 (Reuters) – Lufthansa Group airlines and Air India will suspend flights to Riyadh, they said on Thursday, as Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis renewed threats against airlines after claiming an attack on the Saudi capital’s airport.
A Lufthansa spokesperson told Reuters the German group’s airlines would suspend flights to Riyadh through October 16 due to “current developments in the Middle East”. Air India said it had cancelled all flights to the Saudi capital until October 10.
