UK low-cost carrier easyJet has announced that it has canceled all flights to Israel until late october. The decision is due to the current security situation in the region. easyJet is the first foreign carrier to cancel flights to Israel for a long period, since Israeli airspace was closed on February 28 at the start of the war with Iran.
«We have taken the decision not to operate to and from Tel Aviv this summer as part of our continuous review of our flying programme,» easyJet says in a statement. «We are continuing to closely monitor the situation with a view to resuming flying this winter.»
