The European Union’s aviation authority confirmed Monday night that it has officially ended all flight bans affecting travel to Israel.
These restrictions were originally introduced back in April due to rising tensions and security threats, including the temporary closure of Israeli airspace after Iranian missile attacks and a missile launched by the Houthis that landed near Ben Gurion Airport.
Following those incidents, a number of European airlines halted their Israel-bound routes, citing the EASA directive that warned against flights into the region.
With that guidance now revoked, many European airlines are preparing to slowly reintroduce direct service to Ben Gurion Airport.
