Question:
May Allah reward you with good. He is in the air; how does he know that he is passing by the miqat?
Answer:
Generally, the pilots announce before reaching the miqat a certain time in advance so that people can prepare for ihram. Then, when they pass the miqat, they remind them to make the intention and form the intention, and they give the alert. This is the general practice. If it happens that there is no alert, he should prepare for ihram before boarding the plane. If he boards the plane and approaches the miqat, he enters ihram from the air. This is the custom of the pilots, a rule. He should ask the pilots. May Allah bless you.
