Recent Houthi missile and drone attacks on Saudi targets, including Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport in October 2026 and an attempted strike near an Aramco facility in early November, have prompted temporary airport restrictions, widespread flight cancellations by carriers such as IndiGo and Lufthansa, and international advisories from EASA (valid through November 16) and the FAA (through December 10) recommending avoidance of portions of the Jeddah FIR. Saudi authorities have issued targeted NOTAMs and prior-permission requirements rather than a broad commercial closure across OEJD airspace, which remains open for most overflights and operations. Traders assign low implied probabilities to a general closure by year-end deadlines because historical patterns show Saudi air navigation services maintaining continuity amid regional threats, though further escalation or renewed international warnings could shift assessments before key resolution dates.
