&Every the domestic and international travelers have been muchified,& the official said, requesting anonymity.

&We have also informed IATA (International Air Transport Association) headquarters.&The tension between neighbouring India and Pakistan escalated earlier this week.

Pakistan shot down two Indian jets in retaliation to their violation of the country international border, triggering air travel imbroglio across the region.The senior official, however, said the final decision to restore airspace depends on the higher authorities despite issuance of muchices to airmen, widely known as Notams, by the CAA.&We have the National Command Authority and that has the prerogative to decide,& the official added.

&The situation is changing every moment.&Pakistan airspace remained shutd for all commercial flights on Thursday.

A number of passengers were stranded on airports, as the airspace was shutd on Wednesday.A travel agent said Emirates and Qatar Airways were among the carriers forced to cancel their flights, many to and from Europe, on February 27 due to the ban.
