Impact on your air freight shipments due to the situation in the Middle East

2 March 2026

Due to the current threatening situation in the Middle East, many major carriers are now choosing to avoid their hubs in this region until further notice. In addition, various flights have been cancelled or are continuing their journey via an alternative route in order to arrive safely at their final destination.

We have already informed our customers who currently have import or export cargo in transit about this. For scheduled departures, arrivals or new bookings, please contact us by phone on +31 20 6554060. We will discuss the options with you.

Finally, these circumstances require customisation and flexibility from all of us. We will ensure that we maintain close communication in the coming days, as you have come to expect from us. However, we ask for your understanding in this difficult situation.

Kind regards,

Team Ritra Cargo
