Ben-Gurion International Airport remains open and is not expected to be closed. Despite the war, many airlines continue to operate as usual and have even added rescue flights.

Some airlines, such as Israir, Turkish Airlines, Arkia, and TUS Airways said they would ease restrictions on changing or canceling tickets due to the war.

Several hotels made the same announcement for those with upcoming bookings in Israel, such as the Brown Hotels, Israel Canada, and Fattal Hotels.

A number of travel companies, such as Eshet Tours, Issta, and Diesenhaus, also said they would make leniencies for customers who have already booked flights with them.
