Qantas has moved to temporarily stop direct flights from Perth to London amid international fears of an Iranian retaliatory attack on Israel.
Qantas has made a huge call on flights travelling a major route from Australia over fears of a potential Iran ian attack as the conflict in the Gaza Strip escalates.
The QF9 flight has been renamed QF209 and is expected to fly with a stopover in Singapore for the coming few days, while the return QF10 flight will continue to be a direct service.The temporary change will extend the route’s 18-hour airtime to more than 21 hours, according to Qantas’ website. The move comes as the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade’s Smart Traveller website advises there is an increased threat of attacks against Israel or Israeli interests in the region.
