Pakistan has extended its ban on Indian aircraft from entering its airspace until June 24, 2025, according to a new NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) issued by the Pakistan Airports Authority.

As per the updated NOTAM, the extension applies to all Indian-registered, Indian-operated, Indian-owned, or Indian-leased aircraft, including military aircraft, which will remain prohibited from flying over Pakistani airspace.

The ban also affects all flights managed by Indian airlines or operators, barring them from traversing Pakistani territory.

This airspace restriction was originally imposed by Pakistan in response to India’s unilateral ban on Pakistani flights following the Pahalgam incident. In a reciprocal move, Islamabad barred Indian aircraft from using its airspace.
