ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Qatar Airways grounded all flights until at least Friday morning, a move that includes operations that use other airlines to connect with Orlando International Airport. <\/p>\n

The airline cited the ongoing conflict in Iran and the closure of Qatari airspace as the primary reasons for the suspension.<\/p>\n

Passengers with tickets for upcoming flights may need to make alternative travel arrangements, as the carrier has halted service. <\/p>\n

The airline is responding to regional instability that has impacted flight corridors and safety in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Travelers scheduled to depart or arrive via airports that use Qatar Airways flights are advised to monitor their flight status through the airline\u2019s official channels.<\/p>\n

The airline is expected to provide a public update regarding the status of its operations later this week.<\/p>\n
