Direct flights between the UAE and UK have been temporarily suspended, Dubai Airports said in a statement.
The suspension comes into effect for all flights that were scheduled to arrive after 13:00 UK time on Friday, January 29.
Passengers booked for travel on flights due to arrive in the UK after this time should not go to Dubai International airport (DXB) and should contact their airline for more information.
British, Irish and third-country nationals with residence rights in the UK will still be allowed to enter the UK and options to travel via intermediate points may be available, the statement added.
