Some Airlines Resume Flights to Israel After Cancellations
Air France, Aegean, and several other airlines will resume their flights to Tel Aviv and Beirut on Tuesday after a two-day halt following Israel’s preemptive strike on Hezbollah Sunday and the terror group’s subsequent barrage of rockets and drones at Israel • Full Story
As a consequence of the travel chaos, thousands of Israelis found themselves stranded abroad, trying to find a way home.
Air France, which had suspended its Sunday and Monday flights to Tel Aviv and Beirut because of the heightened tensions in the region, will resume flying to Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport on Tuesday, the airline announced.
The French carrier’s low-cost subsidiary Transavia will also resume services to both destinations.
Aegean Airlines, which canceled flights on Sunday, will also return starting Tuesday.
Etihad Airways, Wizz Air and Corendon Airlines have all announced they plan to restore flights in and out of Israel. But it was not immediately clear when the airlines would resume service.
Those airlines were among the few still flying to Israel, after other major airlines canceled flights to the country, with some pausing until September or even — as with Delta — till April 2025.
Many carriers never resumed flying to Israel after halting flights in the wake of the Hamas terror group’s October 7 attack last year, when thousands of terrorists killed some 1,200 people and took 251 hostages, starting the ongoing war in Gaza.
