India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation has not flagged any safety issues from its ongoing inspection of Air India's Boeing 787 fleet following the deadly 12 June crash of flight AI171, but the airline has been advised to make some internal improvements to reduce delays. "The recent surveillance conducted on Air India’s Boeing 787 fleet did not reveal any major safety concerns. The aircraft and associated maintenance systems were found to be compliant with existing safety standards," it states in a 17 June statement. The statement comes after DGCA reviewed the operations of Air India and its subsidiary Air India Express. In the update, the aviation authority says it has completed checks of 24 out of 33 787-8s and -9s on Air India's fleet, with three more scheduled for the completion of checks in the coming days. Aside from those, four aircraft are undergoing major checks at MROs, while two are presently aircraft-on-ground at Delhi. Fleets data shows that Air India's fleet of 787s has an average age of 9.2 years. While initial investigation did not raise concerns over the 787s, DGCA notes "concerns regarding recent maintenance-related issues reported by Air India." "The airline was advised to strengthen internal coordination across engineering, operations, ground handling units and ensure availability of adequate spares to mitigate passenger delays resulting from such issues and strictly adhere to regulations," it adds.

The Australian Government will provide an additional A$30 million ($19.5 million) loan facility to the administrators running Rex Airlines that will keep it operational as they assess bids for the regional carrier. Administrators Adam Nikitins, Samuel Freeman and Justin Walsh of Ernst & Young say in a 17 June statement that as of the 2 June deadline there have been "a number of offers from interested parties in connection with the sale process for the sale and/or recapitalisation of the Group". They administrators state that they have been able to narrow down the bidders, which "are well-funded and see real value in the business and its future". To complete negotiations with the interested parties, however, the administrators will apply to the Federal Court of Australia to extend the voluntary administration period from June to December 2025. In a separate statement, transport minister Catherine King says that the Federal government will continue to support Rex's services to regional communities by providing a ticket guarantee to passengers on its services and providing a further loan to the administrators on top of the A$80 million facility provided in November 2024 "which is yet to be fully expended". "In order to support the extension, if an application is granted by the Federal Court, additional financing of up to A$30 million from the Australian Government to the administrators will also be made available should it be required to keep regional routes in the air until December," she adds. King also clarifies that the government is not a bidder in the process but it still "undertaking necessary work on contingencies should a market-led solution not be achieved". The government is expected to play a key role in deciding the winning bidder as it is Rex's largest secured creditor after acquiring A$50 million in debt owed to PAG Capital Asia. Neither the government nor the administrators of Rex have identified the parties that remain in the bidding, but The Australian newspaper reports that local firm Anchorage Capital Partners is believed to be in the running, and administrators have rejected a debt-for-equity proposal from Renaissance Partners. Since ceasing its Boeing 737 operations when it entered administration on 30 July 2024, Rex has been operating Saab 340s on regional routes across Australia's east coast and in Western Australia. Excluding the jet operations, Cirium schedules data shows that Rex has been operating fewer flights over months of the past year compared to the previous year, but the gap has narrowed significantly.

The carrier adds that flights scheduled to depart up to and including 30 June have also been closed on the booking system. "This is until the security situation becomes clearer and with the aim of providing solutions for Israelis whose flights were cancelled," states the carrier. "We are working in full coordination with governmental security authorities and prioritizing the safety and security of passengers and crew," it adds.

Several other carriers have also cancelled and diverted their flights to Israel and other Middle East destinations following the strikes.
