Massive Airway/Route Closures effective Saturday, March 15th in Persian Gulf Area.
Just got an e-mail from someone who operates over these routes regularly. The same notams were issued a few days prior to Desert Storm's kickoff. The notams coming out of the Persian Gulf region are increasing at an exponential rate. Airspace is closing down effective this coming Saturday, March 15th. This means all the air carrier flights coming from Australia, lower Asia and the Indian sub continent will be re-routed over the Iran/Turkey routes around an expected conflict zone.
