In a follow-up post she added:” Irish citizens can purchase these tickets on a commercial basis on qatarairways.com.”

“Please do not travel to the airport without a confirmed flight ticket.”

Travel to and from the Middle East has been severely disrupted since war broke out in the region on February 28th.

There were no flights between Ireland and the region for several days after the conflict started, with the first commercial flight from Dubai landing in Dublin on March 4th.
