Flight prices from Abu Dhabi to Delhi have sharply increased due to the ongoing Iran-US war. Limited flights and rising jet fuel costs have pushed ticket prices as high as Rs 70,000 this week. Only one to two direct flights are operating daily between the two cities. Airlines such as Etihad and Air India Express are running the limited services. On March 12, a direct Etihad flight was priced at about Rs 54,166. On March 14, fares reached nearly Rs 69,678. Normally, tickets on this route cost between Rs 10,000 and Rs 21,500. Many Indian travellers in the UAE are struggling to return home due to high prices.
