Qatar's decision to close its airspace in response to Iranian missile attacks has sparked global travel chaos - with influencers complaining of being left stranded at airports and on planes.
Doha's Hamad International Airport shut for eight hours from yesterday evening, prompting airlines to rush to cancel their flights. It reopened at 1.20am local time, but with international routes now interrupted the disruption will take time to resolve.
The barrage of Iranian missiles fired at Al Udeid US military base in Doha in response to American strikes on Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend was the latest escalation of tension in the already volatile region.
Those who have had their travel plans disrupted include Beth Hassan, a 'running and lifestyle' TikToker who shared a video earlier this morning to say her flight from Sydney to Doha had been called off.
'I'm so stressed - there's been no information given,' she said. 'I've tried to contact the airline but can't get through on the phone or email so don't know what to do. I'm really stressed, somebody help!'
