Air Haifa Launches New Route from Tel Aviv to Ramon Airport with Introductory Fares

Air Haifa announced on Sunday, October 11, 2026, the opening of sales for its new flight route connecting Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) near Tel Aviv to Ramon Airport (ETM) near Eilat. To mark the launch, the airline is offering a special introductory fare of 79 shekels one-way for flights in both directions, subject to seat availability. Initially, the airline will operate two flights daily in each direction, with plans to increase this to three flights per day in each direction during November. The flights will depart from Terminal 1 at Ben Gurion Airport, utilizing Air Haifa's ATR 72-600 aircraft, with a flight duration of approximately one hour each way. The ticket price includes a personal hand or backpack; larger carry-on bags (trolleys) can be added starting at 49 shekels, and checked luggage from 77 shekels. Air Haifa's flexible cancellation policy, allowing changes or cancellations up to 24 hours before departure for credit valid for two years, will also apply to this new route. This new route launch coincides with Air Haifa's upcoming second anniversary. Since commencing operations in September 2024, the airline has transported approximately 600,000 passengers across about 10,000 flights. In August of the current year, Air Haifa recorded a monthly operational peak, carrying around 61,000 passengers on approximately 880 flights. The new Tel Aviv-Eilat route joins Air Haifa's existing routes from Haifa, signifying a further expansion of its operations and an increased offering of flights for the Israeli public. Miki Strassburger, a co-founder of Air Haifa, stated that the company's goal was to expand flight options for Israelis, and the opening of the new route is another step in that direction, bringing Air Haifa's characteristic simplicity, flexibility, and passenger-focused service to the new line.
