Malaysia Airlines suspends more flights to and from Doha, Jeddah, Madinah until March 4


KUALA LUMPUR: National carrier Malaysia Airlines has extended its suspension of all flights to and from Doha (DOH), Jeddah (JED), and Madinah (MED) until March 4, 2026, following cancellations implemented from Feb 28 to March 1, 2026.

Its parent company Malaysia Aviation Group Bhd (MAG) said this is due to the continued closure of airspace in parts of the Middle East amid escalating regional security developments.

However, it said all other flights, including those to and from London (LHR) and Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG), remain on schedule at this time.

"These flights are operating on alternative routings, well clear of the affected conflict zone," MAG said in a statement on Sunday (March 1).
