Flydubai has announced the suspension of its flights to Israel for a period of six days, with the possibility of extending this measure depending on the developments and outcomes of an ongoing investigation into a recent incident. The decision comes shortly after the Israeli General Security Service (Shin Bet) approved a temporary permit for Israeli airlines to operate flights exclusively to the United Arab Emirates using leased aircraft.
The suspension highlights the sensitivity surrounding aviation operations and regulatory approvals in the region, particularly following the recent incident that triggered the investigation. The duration of the flight halt is contingent on the progress and findings of the inquiry, suggesting a cautious approach by the airline and potentially by Israeli aviation authorities.
