The latest move comes as part of broader U.S. efforts to tighten controls on Iranian air travel, raising concerns over disruptions for passengers and trade routes. Authorities have not yet clarified whether the pause is permanent or tied to specific regulatory hurdles. Industry observers warn the decision could signal deeper instability in regional air connectivity.
