TAIPEI/NEW DELHI, May 7 (Reuters) - Airlines including United Airlines and Korean Air re-routed or cancelled flights and about a dozen Indian airports were shut on Wednesday after India struck nine sites in Pakistan, raising fears of an escalation.

India attacked Pakistani Kashmir and Pakistan said it had shot down five Indian fighter jets in the flare-up, which followed an attack by Islamist militants that killed 26 people in Indian Kashmir last month. India said it hit "terrorist infrastructure" related to the tourist killings. Pakistan rejects that it has such camps on its territory.

Images from flight tracking websites showed a long line of airlines passing over Oman, UAE and Kuwait after the attack, raising the possibility of airspace congestion.

Authorities in Pakistan said 57 international flights were in the country's airspace when India struck. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's office said India's action "caused grave danger to commercial airlines" belonging to Gulf countries and "endangered lives".

India's civil aviation ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Pakistan's remarks.

In the last few days, India and Pakistan had shut their airspaces to each other's airlines. Global airlines like Lufthansa LHAG.DE have also been avoiding Pakistan's airspace.

"If the conflict continues, there is a chance that Pakistan could impose a full airspace closure, as they did from Feb. to Aug. 2019 under similar circumstances," aviation advisory body OPSGROUP said in a blog post published Wednesday.

Domestic flights in both countries were also disrupted. Three percent of scheduled flights in India and 17% of scheduled flights in Pakistan were cancelled as of 1030 GMT, according to Flightradar24.

India's top airline IndiGo said it was cancelling 165 flights till Saturday morning. Its shares were down 1.1%. Flights belonging to Air India, SpiceJet and Akasa Air were also cancelled.

Pakistan said its airspace was open following closure after the attacks and that its airports were "fully functional."

Images from FlightRadar24 showed some civilian jets flying over Pakistan airspace but India's northwest continued to be deserted.

GPS SPOOFING CONCERN

The changing airline schedules are set to further complicate operations in the Middle East and South Asia regions for carriers, which are already grappling with the fallout from conflicts in the two regions.

A spokesperson for Dutch airline KLM said it was not flying over Pakistan until further notice. Singapore Airlines SIAL.SI said it had stopped flying over Pakistani airspace since May 6.

Korean Air 003490.KS said it had begun rerouting its Seoul Incheon–Dubai flights on Wednesday, opting for a southern route that passes over Myanmar, Bangladesh, and India, instead of the previous path through Pakistani airspace.

United Airlines said it had cancelled its flight to Delhi, citing in part "airspace limitations". The U.S. airline operates one direct flight from Newark to New Delhi.

American Airlines AAL.O said it made adjustments to its operations to New Delhi and would allow customers impacted by the changes to change their plans without charge.

Thai Airways THAI.BK said flights to destinations in Europe and South Asia would be rerouted starting early on Wednesday morning, while Taiwan's China Airlines 2610.TW said flights to and from destinations including London, Frankfurt and Rome had been disrupted.

Flights from India to Europe were also seen taking longer routes. Lufthansa flight LH761 from Delhi to Frankfurt took about half an hour more to reach its destination compared to Tuesday, according to FlightRadar24.

The Association of Asia Pacific Airlines voiced concern over the impact of conflicts on airline operations.

"Apart from cost and operational disruption, there are safety concerns as GPS spoofing interfering with flight operations over conflict zones is one of the highest risks the industry faces," it said in a statement.

GPS spoofing is a malicious technique that manipulates Global Positioning System (GPS) data, which can send commercial airliners off course.

Jan 28 (Reuters) - Indian budget carrier SpiceJet SPJT.BO said on Tuesday that the first of four grounded Boeing 737 MAX aircraft would resume operations on Wednesday, Jan. 29.

SpiceJet aims to restart the other three 737 MAXs and 10 aircraft in total by mid-April, it said in a statement.

Several SpiceJet aircraft have been grounded or deregistered due to unpaid dues to lessors. As of November, the airline had a fleet of 60 aircraft.

The carrier has done a series of fund raises to settle its dues and bring its grounded jets back to operation.

NEW DELHI, Jan 3 (Reuters) - Thick smog engulfed the Indian capital on Friday, prompting warnings of possible flight disruptions from airport and airline officials, as worsening air quality cut visibility to zero in some areas.

Delhi, which has been battling smog and poor air quality since the beginning of winter, ranked third among the world's most polluted capitals in Friday's live rankings by Swiss group IQAir.

No diversion or cancellation has been reported yet, an airport spokesperson said, although authorities warned in a post on X that aircraft lacking equipment to enable landings in low visibility could face difficulties.

On social media, India's largest airline IndiGo and low-cost carrier Spicejet also cautioned against weather delays.

Delays averaged eight minutes for 20 flights by 10:14 a.m., aviation website FlightRadar24 said.

Some train services in the capital were also delayed, media said.

New Delhi's air quality was rated "very poor" on Friday, with an index score of 351, the country's top pollution control body said, well beyond the levels from zero to 50 that it considers "good".

NEW DELHI, Nov 28 (Reuters) - Airlines and airports in India received a total of 999 hoax bomb threats from the start of this year until Nov. 14, nearly ten times more than in the whole of 2023, the country's deputy civil aviation minister told parliament on Thursday.

The threats to both domestic and international flights were made mostly through social media, disrupting travel in the world's fastest growing aviation market, and all were found to be false alarms.

"The recent threats were hoaxes and no actual threat was detected at any of the airports/aircraft in India," the minister, Murlidhar Mohol, told parliament in a written answer.

More than 500 bomb threats were made in the last two weeks of October alone - higher than the rest of the year combined - he said, and 12 people have been arrested in relation to the 256 police complaints registered over such threats up to Nov. 14.

NEW DELHI, Oct 17 (Reuters) - Police in India's financial capital Mumbai have arrested a minor for allegedly posting online bomb threats to three flights earlier this week, India's aviation minister said.

Indian airlines have this month received a spate of threats to domestic and international flights on their social media, all of which have been false alarms.

"Strongly condemn the recent bomb threats to Indian air carriers. We are closely monitoring the situation and ensuring that every necessary measure is taken against such actions," Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu, the country's civil aviation minister, said in a post on X on Wednesday.

He said the person arrested was a minor, meaning below the age of 18, and did not name him.

Local media have reported that bomb threats were made from an account on X and alleged two IndiGo flights - one to Muscat and another to Jeddah, and an Air India one to New York had armed militants with explosives.

At least eight flights of leading carrier IndiGo INGL.NS were subject to threats. Three Spicejet SPJT.BO ones, two Vistara and four Air India ones also received similar messages online this week, according to Reuters calculations.

Air India said its flight from New Delhi to Chicago was forced to land in Canada on Wednesday after a "security threat posted online". Passengers were later taken to their destination by a Canadian Air Force plane.

"Air India notes that it, and other local airlines, have been subject to a number of threats in recent days," the carrier said.

The government plans to enhance security on international flights by deploying more sky marshals, who are armed personnel in plain clothes, according to India's Economic Times newspaper.

India's interior and aviation ministries did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters.

IndiGo, Spicejet and Vistara said in their statements they are working with authorities to follow standard procedures.
