the most obvious impact on aviation is the closure of large amounts of airspace, notjust above ukraine, which is more than twice the size of the uk, but also russia, the world s biggest country. for decades, flights from europe to east asia have traversed russia. it s the shortest route between hundreds of city pairs. as a result, some airlines are routing flights north of russia. for example, finnair is sending some flights to japan, directly over the north pole. others are routing them south of ukraine although this can add thousands of miles and extra hours in the air. links between asia and north america are also affected, with cathay pacific saying its hong kong to new york flight could be routed over the middle east and europe rather than directly over russia and arctic canada,
