Today, the airline officially announced that they’ll resume flights between New York/Newark on March 15. In addition to every day flights, the second flight might be added from March 29. With recommending flights in March, return tariffs start from USD 1,069.

Delta Airlines has already announced that she resumes flights from New York to Tel Aviv on April 1, with seven weekly flights.
United Airlines said that she decided to renew the operation after a deep study of operational considerations in the region and in consultation with associations representing pilots and on -board crews. Flights will operate using Boeing 787-10 aircraft, that are considered the most advanced in the carrier’s fleet.
Before the war, United Airlines ran 28 weekly flights from Tel Aviv: 14 to New York, and the rest to numerous places in the USA, amongst them Chicago, Washington and San Francisco. On October 7, 2023, the company suspended its activity in Israel, renewing it in March 2024 with only seven weekly flights to New York. After the Iranian attack on Israel in April, one other wave of flight cancellation began, which United joined, but soon after he returned to Israel in June. The company continued its operations until the end of July, but then the escalation of the fights in the north led her to the announcement that she would suspend the service until his dismissal.
United said: “United undertakes for many years on the Israeli market and we are excited about the first American airline, which this year renews the Tel Aviv route.” United is considering expanding the frequency of its flights to Israel and the introduction of numerous American destinations.
