This advice is issued by the Civil Aviation Authority in the form of a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM).

In certain cases the advice is supplemented by a Direction not to operate.</p><p>The reasons for the current NOTAMs in the areas mentioned are:</p><p>a) Potential risk to aviation overflying Libya from dedicated anti-aviation weaponry.</p><p>b) Potential risk to aviation overflying Syria from dedicated anti-aviation weaponry.</p><p>c) Potential risk to aviation overflying Yemen from dedicated anti-aviation weaponry.</p><p>d) Potential risk to aviation overflying Iraq from dedicated anti-aviation weaponry.</p><p>e) Potential risk to aviation overflying Somalia at less than 25,000ft above ground level from dedicated anti-aircraft weaponry</p><p>f) Potential risk to aviation overflying eastern Ukraine from dedicated anti-aviation weaponry and the potential for confusion over air traffic control service provision in the Simferopol (UKFV) FIR</p><p>g) Potential risk to aviation overflying Egyptian airspace in Northern Sinai Governate at less than 25,000 ft above ground level from dedicated anti-aircraft weaponry.</p><p>Additionally, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office advises against all but essential travel by air to or from Sharm el Sheikh following the downing of a Metrojet flight in October 2015.</p><p>Advice is kept under regular review.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency South Holland and The Deepings answering member printed Mr John Hayes question first answered 08/01/2018 17:50:00 answering member 350 label Biography information for Sir John Hayes
