He noted\nthat EK369 departed Denpasar for Dubai (DBX) on Thursday 5 March at\n00:42 WITA on an Airbus A380, marking Emirates\u2019 first service from\nDenpasar to Dubai since the closure of airspace amid the Middle East\ntensions. The return of Emirates services continued with a\nDubai-to-Denpasar arrival later that day: \u2018On Friday afternoon, I Gusti\nNgurah Rai welcomed Emirates flight EK368 from Dubai, operated on an\nAirbus A380, which landed in Bali at 16:30 WITA,\u2019 Eka Sandi added. He\nstressed that the airport operator is maintaining intensive coordination\nwith the affected airlines to monitor current operations, as not all\nMiddle East routes have yet reopened. Since 28 March 2026, there have\nbeen 64 international flight cancellations, comprising 34 departures and\n30 arrivals. Canceled services affected Qatar Airways on the\nDoha\u2013Denpasar\/Denpasar\u2013Doha routes, Emirates on\nDubai\u2013Denpasar\/Denpasar\u2013Dubai, and Etihad on Abu\nDhabi\u2013Denpasar\/Denpasar\u2013Abu Dhabi. Eight thousand one hundred\neighty-seven passengers were affected by these cancellations. Eka Sandi\nstated that all passengers have been processed in line with each\nairline\u2019s policy. The airport has prepared for ground handling\nadjustments for affected flights, allocating parking space for four\naircraft from three airlines, and has set up a help desk area and\nimmigration counters for Izin Tinggal Keadaan Terpaksa (ITKT) processing\nfor affected passengers, located on Level 2 of the International\nDeparture Terminal. Passengers are urged to maintain contact with their\nrespective airlines for updated flight schedules. The broader impact of\nthe Middle East conflict continues to be felt in air connectivity, with\nongoing disruptions to regional routes affecting Bali\u2019s international\nschedules.<\/p>",
