Three airlines are set to resume flights to and from Israel on Sunday, expanding travel options to London, San Francisco, and Madrid after a period of reduced flight availability. British Airways will restart direct flights between London and Tel Aviv, a popular destination for Israelis for leisure, family visits, and business. The resumption of this service is expected to increase passenger choice regarding flight times and prices, and potentially foster greater competition.
El Al is also scheduled to reintroduce direct flights connecting Tel Aviv and San Francisco. This route offers a non-stop option to the West Coast of the United States, benefiting travelers for tourism, family visits, or business purposes. Direct flights eliminate the need to coordinate multiple flight segments and wait for connections.
Iberia Express will also recommence operations on the Madrid-Tel Aviv route. Madrid serves as both a tourist destination and a transit point for further travel within Spain and Europe. However, a notable difference exists for passengers booking round trips: flights from Madrid to Tel Aviv will include a brief stopover in Athens, while flights from Tel Aviv to Madrid will be direct. Travelers should verify the itinerary for each leg of their journey before booking.
