Airlines around the world have begun adding flights to Tel Aviv back to their schedules.
Delta was the first United States carrier to return to the Israeli hub when it resumed its route from New York JFK to Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion International Airport (TLV) on September 6.
Similarly, United Airlines is resuming its Tel Aviv service on Tuesday, with two flights departing New Jersey’s Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) for TLV.
The flights mark the first Delta and United services to Tel Aviv in more than six months since the war with Iran broke out in March.
Later this fall, a handful of European carriers are also planning to return to Tel Aviv, according to the Jerusalem Post.
Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) will resume its route between Copenhagen and Tel Aviv on October 26, with plans to operate four flights per week.
Hungarian low-cost carrier Wizz Air is expanding its route network into Tel Aviv. As of September 7, Wizz began connecting the airport to five new destinations, including London Gatwick, Venice and Catania in Italy, and Cluj, Romania.
The budget airline will also increase flight frequencies on existing TLV routes to destinations like Rome, Budapest, and Athens.
