Pronóstico: Iran full airspace closure by 2026?

Platform comparison

Market context

Iran has repeatedly used airspace restrictions as a short-term security measure rather than a lasting shutdown. In January, it closed most of its airspace for about five hours amid heightened US tensions, then reopened with only limited domestic operations and some international flights allowed by prior authorisation.[1][10] During the late-February and June escalation cycles, however, closures were broader and more disruptive, with Reuters and Flightradar24 reporting full or near-full suspensions and extensions issued through NOTAMs before traffic gradually resumed.[7][17] That history matters because the market only resolves “Yes” on a general closure of the Tehran FIR, so partial western-sector restrictions or limited permission-based operations do not qualify.[6][13]

For traders, the main catalysts are official NOTAMs, Civil Aviation Organisation statements, and any sudden rise in regional military risk. Reuters reported in January that Iran’s restriction initially applied to most flights but still allowed some international services to and from Tehran with advance approval, showing how wording can matter as much as the security backdrop.[10] More recently, operational briefings have said most Europe-Asia traffic is still routing away from Iran even as the eastern FIR remains partly open, which means the market can stay at 0% unless there is a clear, general order affecting commercial transits across the country.[6][20] Watch for developments tied to US-Iran tensions, Gulf airspace coordination, and any new conflict around the Strait of Hormuz, because those are the triggers that have previously produced the fastest, most comprehensive closures.[1][7][20]
