Indian airlines to suffer higher costs, detours in ban from Pakistan airspace
Indian airlines Air India and IndiGo are bracing for higher fuel costs and longer journey times as they reroute international flights after Pakistan shut its airspace to them amid tensions over a deadly militant attack in Kashmir.
India has said there were Pakistani elements in Tuesday's attack in which gunmen killed 26 men in a meadow in the Pahalgam area of Indian Kashmir. Pakistan has denied any involvement.
