Hold onto your travel plans, folks! The Lufthansa Group, including its subsidiaries like SWISS, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, and Eurowings, has extended its flight suspension to Israel's bustling Tel Aviv airport until June 22, 2025[1][2][3].
Why, you ask? It's all due to the continuous unrest in the Gaza Strip, sparking concerns for the safety of air travel.
The travel ban began in early May following an incident where a rocket from Yemen landed near Tel Aviv airport[4]. Despite the setback, passengers affected by this extended suspension can easily cancel or reschedule their flights at no additional cost, according to the company's announcement.
