Is it safe to fly to the UAE right now given US-Iran tensions, and are tours getting cancelled?

Around the time of the US-Iran memorandum signing, travelers with already-booked tours felt anxious before departure, even though flights were still operating.

An Aeroflot flight booked through the Bilib Globus tour operator in early August went smoothly, with the route passing through Iranian airspace; hotel welcome was good, water clean, ocean warm.

In May, tours to the UAE were cancelled due to the Iran situation — one traveler reported their trip was cancelled at that time, even though everything had been running normally before.
