SIA cancels Dubai flights amidst Middle East conflict

Cancellations run from 28 February to 7 March.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) announced cancellation of flights SQ494 from Singapore to Dubai and SQ495 from Dubai to Singapore from 28 February to 7 March 2026 due to the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, the carrier said in an advisory.

The airline said the situation remains fluid and other SIA flights may be affected, and customers may visit SIA’s Flight Status page for the latest information.

Customers affected by the cancellations will be accommodated on alternative flights or can seek a full refund of the unused portion of their ticket. Customers who booked directly with SIA may use the Assistance Request Form to seek a refund, whilst those who booked through travel agents or partner airlines are advised to contact their travel agent or purchasing airline directly for assistance.

Customers are strongly advised to update their contact details via the ‘Manage Booking’ function on SIA’s website or subscribe to a mobile notification service to receive updates to their flight status, and the airline apologised to affected customers for the inconvenience caused.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
