All the Birmingham Airport flights cancelled today – Sunday, March 15<\/p>\n

More flights are cancelled from Birmingham Airport on Sunday as the crisis in the Middle East continues. The Iran, Israel and USA War – which has now gone on for two weeks – continues to wreak havoc with airspace in the Gulf.<\/p>\n

Before the crisis, the three big Gulf hubs \u2013 Dubai, home of Emirates, Abu Dhabi for Etihad and Qatar Airways\u2019 Doha base \u2013 had established themselves as the crossroads of global aviation.<\/p>\n

But the transport hubs, which fly to and from Birmingham<\/a>, have faced flight chaos as a result of Donald Trump’s decision to attack Iran. The chaos has had a knock-on impact on BHX, with airlines like Emirates and Qatar Airways grounding services.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Trump said he is \u201csurprised\u201d that US allies in the Gulf have been targeted by Iran, in an interview with NBC News.<\/p>\n

The president called these countries \u201cterrific\u201d, adding that \u201cthey got shot at unnecessarily.\u201d When talking about Iran\u2019s decision to target them, Trump said it was \u201cthe biggest surprise I had of this whole thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Below are the flights listed as cancelled to and from BHX on Sunday, March 15.<\/p>\n

It comes as anger in the Middle East grows over US involvement in the attacks on Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe perceived Iran threat to the Gulf only became a reality when the US declared the war \u2013 Iran did not fire first,\u201d says Khaled Almezaini, an associate professor of politics and international relations at Zayed University, in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is strong condemnation of the Iranians but at the same time there\u2019s a message to the Americans and the Israelis that, well, we have to find a way to end this. This is not our war.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Iran, Israel and USA War – which has now gone on for two weeks – continues to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":476956,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[3094,84,59,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-476955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-birmingham-airport","tag-business","tag-gb","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/476955","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=476955"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/476955\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/476956"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=476955"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=476955"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=476955"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
