British low-cost airline easyJet announced on Tuesday that it will delay its return to Israel until the end of March 2026 due to the ongoing situation in Israel, despite the war with Iran ending in late June.
"To provide our customers with certainty about our winter flight schedule, we will no longer operate flights to Tel Aviv during the winter season, up to and including March 28, 2026. Customers are being informed of their options, which include receiving a refund or transferring to an alternative flight free of charge," the company said. "We regret any inconvenience that may be caused and remain committed to resuming our flights to Tel Aviv from the summer of 2026."
In a statement to Israel Hayom, the airline elaborated, "We have considered multiple factors, including how the current situation affects the reliability of flight schedules for our customers. We remain dedicated to resuming flights to Tel Aviv starting in summer 2026."
In recent days, other airlines have resumed flights to Israel, such as Aegean from Greece and Air Europa. United Airlines is set to return on July 21, Lufthansa on August 1, and Wizz Air, another low-cost carrier, on August 8.
Several airlines have extended cancellations to Israel: Delta Air Lines, ITA, and Air India until August 31; Transavia and Air Canada until September 7; Iberia Express until October 24; and KLM and Ryanair until October 2025.
