UAE Revokes Landing Permit, Israel Flights to Dubai Cancelled

El Al said on October 2 that a flight scheduled to depart for Dubai that day to bring back stranded Israeli travellers was cancelled after the United Arab Emirates abruptly revoked its landing permit. Flights planned for next week remain on the schedule, but all tickets are sold out, the airline said.

The abrupt permit revocation injects operational uncertainty into a route that has become a quiet barometer of UAE-Israel normalisation, and it lands hardest on travellers with few alternatives. That next week's flights remain scheduled while being sold out suggests demand is not the constraint — political or regulatory clearance is. Whether the revocation proves a one-off administrative action or signals a broader reassessment of aviation ties is the open question worth watching.
