Travel advisory for PCBL conference-goers

It is a worrying time across the world as events unfold in the Middle East.

It is a worrying time across the world as events unfold in the Middle East.

Next week, Pacific Cooperation Broadcasting Limited (PCBL) will host attendees from around the region and further afield at its Pacific Broadcasters CEO’s Conference and Young Pacific Leaders workshop on Navigating the digital landscape, in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland from March 10-13, 2026.

According to travel consultants Orbit World Travel, places currently affected are the Middle East and anyone travelling via Doha, Dubai or Abu Dhabi.

The air space over that area is closed and all carriers are avoiding the area.

For the rest of the world, it is business as usual at the moment.

Please be assured, PCBL is keeping a close eye on events, and will inform you of any unexpected changes.
