    Asian airlines are scrambling to cancel, divert or reroute flights after the recent escalation between India and Pakistan, AFP reports. Here is a round-up of what airlines are doing to avoid flying over the conflict zone.

    South Korea: Korean Air is rerouting its flights from Seoul Incheon to Dubai, using a southern route that passes over Myanmar, Bangladesh and India, instead of the previous path through Pakistani airspace.

    Taiwan: China Airlines said several flights have been diverted or cancelled. Two flights from Taipei to Frankfurt and Amsterdam “made a technical diversion to Bangkok” before returning to the Taiwanese capital.

    Malaysia: Malaysia Airlines rerouted two flights from Kuala Lumpur — one to London Heathrow and one to Paris Charles de Gaulle. They stopped in Doha before continuing their journeys. The carrier also suspended all flights to and from India’s Amritsar until May 9.

    Thailand: Thai Airways said it was rerouting flights to destinations in Europe and South Asia from 5am (2200 GMT Tuesday), warning of possible delays.

    Sri Lanka: Sri Lankan Airlines said its flights were unaffected and there is no change to their four weekly flights to Pakistan’s Lahore and Karachi.
