British Airways will resume its flights between Tel Aviv and London on October 25, operating a daily service to Heathrow Airport. After nearly an eight-month break, the airline is rejoining a growing number of foreign carriers gradually returning to Israel.
This move follows the return of two major American airlines last month. Delta Air Lines restarted its route between New York's JFK Airport and Tel Aviv in early September with a daily flight. This trend is expected to continue in the coming months.
Air India plans to renew direct flights between Tel Aviv and Delhi on December 1, after a previous return date was postponed. The airline is scheduled to operate five weekly flights on this route. American Airlines remains notably absent, having not flown to Israel since October 2023.
