Qantas pauses direct Perth to London route amid concerns of an Iranian attack on Israel

Qantas has re-routed its non-stop Perth to London flights following concerns of an Iranian attack on Israel. Flights will stop in Singapore for the foreseeable future to avoid Iranian airspace. “We’re temporarily adjusting the flight paths for our flights between Perth and London due to the situation in parts of the Middle East,” a Qantas spokesperson said. Australia has also updated its travel advice for citizens, warning against travel to Israel. The advice to Australians is to “reconsider your need to travel” to Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories due to the “volatile security situation” in the region.
