Here’s a list of all of the airlines currently operating in Israel, as well as those expected to resume service in upcoming months.
Air travel to Israel was considerably muddied up by the tragic events of October 7 and the subsequent war in Gaza. Following Hamas’ shock attack in Southern Israel, international airlines around the world temporarily halted their routes to Israel, leaving a surprising lack of options for those wishing to make their way in and out of the country.
With Delta announcing that it will be resuming its New York to Tel Aviv flight route on June 7 following “an extensive security risk assessment by the airline,” prospective travelers may want to know what other airlines are also planning their returns to the Holy Land, and what airlines are currently offering flights.
The below list is subject to change as events continue to unfold, but here’s a look at what’s going where as of April 5, 2024:
