Emirates, the flag carrier of the United Arab Emirates, has suspended all flights from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka to Dubai until July 15.

“In line with UAE government directives, Emirates will be suspending the carriage of passengers from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka to Dubai until 15 July 2021,” the airline said in its website.

It said passengers who have connected through Pakistan, Bangladesh or Sri Lanka in the last 14 days will not be accepted to travel from any other point to the UAE.

UAE nationals, holders of UAE Golden Visas and members of diplomatic missions who comply with updated Covid 19 protocols are exempt and may be accepted for travel, the Dubai-based airline added.
