This is a current screenshot of Flightradar24, it is interesting to see how traffic between Europe and Asia is rerouted to avoid both the air space over Ukraine and Iran...

Basically they're all flying over the southern part of the black sea...

Our elderly neighbors, who spend the winter months every year in Goa, wrote today to update us. They were supposed to fly back with Qatar Airlines yesterday or today and all flights are halted at least until March 6th. This means tomorrow they have to go out of their way to some bureaucratic office in India to get their tourist visa extended cuz it ends on March 3rd! They expect long waits there and at the airport for rerouting as many Europeans are now stranded. Oh well ...

They also have to avoid airspace around all military installations everywhere.

Being stuck there is probably a better outcome than being stuck in - for example - Dubai at this moment...

Nothing good will come of this.

Iranians are massing in the streets, chanting, 'Death to America and Israel!' There will be no regime change and without a large number of troops on the ground, there never could be.

Iran has supposedly been 'two weeks away from getting nukes for at least the last 30 years, yet they still haven't managed it.
Considering that their mortal enemy, Israel, has plenty of nukes, it's hardly surprising that Iran wants them as a deterrent against what is repeatedly being done to them.
I'm sure many other countries are looking at this and thinking they'd better get some fast, or they could be next.
When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.
