Air Haifa Launches New Routes and Election-Themed Discount Campaign

This expansion offers Israelis new and more frequent flight options, increasing competition on the route. The airline also inaugurated its winter schedule, introducing a new route from Haifa to Thessaloniki, Greece, which will operate twice weekly on Sundays and Thursdays.

To celebrate these launches and capitalize on the approaching election season, Air Haifa initiated a unique "election campaign" promotion. Customers are invited to vote on the airline's Facebook group, "Air Haifa - The Community," to decide which discount will be featured in their weekly "FLYDAY" sale on election day. The options are a 30% discount on flights in November, 25% off flights in December, or 20% off flights from January to March 2027. Each participant can vote once, with voting closing Monday, October 26, at 6:00 PM and results announced at 7:00 PM. The winning discount will apply to bookings made by midnight on Tuesday, October 27, for international flights only, and will cover the base fare, excluding airport taxes, trolley bags, checked luggage, and seat selection. Changes to bookings made with the promotional coupon will not be permitted.

Miki Strassburger, a co-founder of Air Haifa, stated that the new routes to Ramon and Thessaloniki are part of the company's ongoing expansion and deepening presence in the Israeli aviation market. He emphasized the company's commitment to broadening its destination map and frequencies, providing more convenient and accessible flight options for passengers in Israel, both from the north and the center of the country.

Base fares include a personal item or backpack, with options to add a trolley bag starting at 49 shekels or checked luggage starting at 77 shekels. Air Haifa's flexible cancellation policy, allowing changes or cancellations up to 24 hours before departure for credit valid for two years, also applies to the new route. The airline currently operates direct flights from Haifa to six destinations, five in Europe (Sofia, Thessaloniki, Athens, Paphos, Larnaca) and one domestic route to Eilat.
