According to CNBC, since the U.S. and Israel launched attacks on Iran, at least 20,000 flights in the Middle East have been canceled, affecting over one million people. According to Jin10, these disruptions include flight cancellations and airspace closures. The World Travel and Tourism Council reports that these issues threaten the $11.7 trillion global tourism industry, which significantly contributes to the global economy. This situation is part of a series of conflicts affecting global tourism this year, indicating that even those far from missile strikes, drone attacks, and other geopolitical hotspots cannot escape the ripple effects of these events.
