Intrepid says it is closely monitoring the situation in the Middle East following escalating military action in the region.

“Tours are continuing to run as scheduled in Egypt, Jordan, Oman and Saudi Arabia,” said Intrepid in a statement.

“Our teams are actively supporting travellers on the ground, particularly in the case of flight cancellations and delays.”

Intrepid does not operate trips in Israel, Iran, Lebanon, Qatar or the UAE.

“We are also aware that the airspace closures and safety advisories have caused airlines to cancel, reroute or delay flights across a broader range of Middle Eastern and connecting destinations – not only those directly affected by the conflict,” said Intrepid.

Travellers flying to or through the region are advised to check directly with their airline or booking agent for the most up‑to‑date flight information and rebooking options.

“Our priority remains the safety and wellbeing of our customers and team. Intrepid is a leader in destination monitoring and draws on a number of sources, including government travel advisories and local destination monitoring via its teams of operation experts on the ground. The company is actively assessing its itineraries across the region and will make adjustments as required,” said Intrepid.
