U.S. Carriers Additional Prolong Israel Flight Suspensions


American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines each
has extended the suspension of their flights to and from Tel Aviv, Israel, as
tensions continue in the Middle East, the carriers confirmed Wednesday. 

Each carrier initially suspended flights, along
with other airlines
, last year following the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel.
Unlike Delta and United, American had not resumed flights since, and its suspension
now is dated through March 29, 2025. Flights previously had been scheduled to
restart in late October.

“To provide additional flexibility, we will extend our
travel alert allowing customers whose travel plans are impacted by this
adjustment to rebook without a fee or cancel and receive a refund,” according
to an American statement. “We will continue to work closely with our partner
airlines to assist customers traveling between Israel and European cities with
service to the U.S.”

Delta’s current suspension end date was pushed to Sept. 30
from Aug. 31, with the ability for ticket holders to rebook their travel by
Sept. 30, according to the carrier’s current flight-waiver information. Rebooked
travel must begin no later than Dec. 15, 2024. 

United also continues its current suspension of flights to and
from Tel Aviv and it “looks forward to resuming flights as soon as it’s safe
for our customers and crew,” according to the carrier. Affected customers can
get refunds or they can rebook on United flights to any city in Europe or the
Middle East.
