This comes after EaseMyTrip CEO Nishant Pitti promised to start charter flights on Monday.
“If you or someone you know needs help, please join the channel and share this message widely,” wrote Nishant Pitti on X.
He also urged people to join the WhatsApp channel for updates and travel support aimed at helping Indians stranded in the UAE.
Major hubs including Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Muscat saw hundreds of flight cancellations over the weekend. As a result, many Indians are said to be stuck in conflict-affected nations.
Partial flight operations have started from Dubai and Abu Dhabi airports. However, not all routes are open.
