Israeli airline El Al is preparing to resume flights between Tel Aviv and Dubai in November, operating at least two daily services. The resumption is contingent on approval from Israeli government bodies. Israeli airlines have not flown to the UAE in recent months due to security restrictions imposed by the Shin Bet, according to Globes. Progress in negotiations between Israel and the UAE reportedly followed an incident on a FlyDubai flight, with the Emirates agreeing to Israeli security service demands. The Shin Bet had temporarily permitted Israeli carriers to fly to the UAE on leased aircraft for a few days, but permanent authorization for regular flights is still pending. FlyDubai flights to Israel remain operational for now, though the situation is under review by relevant authorities.
