Israeli airline Sun D'Or has postponed the launch of its route to Marrakech, Morocco, which was originally scheduled for November 16. The decision was announced by its parent company, El Al. This move follows a similar announcement by Arkia Airlines, which halted ticket sales to Marrakech due to security agency demands. El Al stated that flights to Marrakech are currently canceled until December 15. Passengers affected by the cancellations can opt for a full refund or a credit voucher for future use. El Al is also offering free flight changes to other El Al or Sun D'Or destinations in Europe. The announcement from El Al is not surprising, as Israir Airlines had previously announced a suspension of its flights to Marrakech. This decision by Israir was attributed to changes in security directives following an attempted hijacking of a Flydubai aircraft on September 29, en route from Dubai to Israel.
