I have an upcoming flight from Perth to the UK with Emirates in a few weeks, but I am feeling anxious about whether it is safe to travel.
With ongoing conflict in the region and reports of missiles and drones being launched toward areas around Dubai, I am unsure if I should proceed with my trip or cancel it. We also have an important family event at home that I would really like to attend.
I recall seeing videos from past incidents where passengers reportedly saw missile activity from aircraft, which has added to my concern about the possibility of danger during the flight.
I am trying to understand how safe it actually is to fly under these conditions and whether my worries are reasonable or if I am overestimating the risk.
