Iran missiles force Emirates pilots to turn back – then they land in Dubai


While the United Arab Emirates repelled an Iranian missile attack last night, Emirates planes were en route to Dubai. An Airbus A380 first turned around – and was finally able to land in the emirate.

If you look at what time planes took off from Dubai’s two airports last night, you’ll notice: Dubai International (DXB) took off between 2:30 a.m. and 7:43 a.m no plane takes offin Dubai World Central none between 2:21 a.m. and 4:51 a.m.

As the PYOK portal reports, there were fires from around 3 a.m. local time an Iranian attack. Accordingly, the Ministry of Defense of the United Arab Emirates confirmed that air defense systems fended off missiles headed for Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Because of Iran missiles: Emirates plane first circles over Oman and then lands in Dubai

There were no planes in the air that had taken off, but there were some that were on their way to the United Emirates. For example, Emirates flight EK501 from Mumbai to Dubai.

The Airbus A380 with the registration A6-EVP began circling over the Gulf of Oman at around 3:27 a.m. Then he turned around – it looked like the plane was heading back to India. But eventually it turned back again and landed in Dubai at 5:10 a.m.

Another Airbus turned around over India

While flight EK501 only appeared to be heading back shortly before its destination, another Airbus A380 from Emirates actually turned back over India shortly after takeoff. The A6-EUH took off as flight EK569 from Bengaluru, India, bound for Dubai. But around 34 minutes after takeoff, it turned around, flew back and landed back at the departure airport.
