Just days after Lufthansa announced its intention to resume flights to Israel, today (Tuesday) Air France also confirmed that it will begin flights as early as the upcoming Saturday night.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13426\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13426\" style=\"width: 724px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2-26.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2-26.jpg 724w, https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2-26-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13426\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ben Gurion Airport | Photo: Gili Yaari \/ Flash 90<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Air France has announced that direct flights between Paris and Tel Aviv will resume on January 25th, with daily flights operated by the Airbus A350-900. The aircraft significantly upgrades travel experiences across all classes, featuring a dedicated premium economy class, flat-laying seats in business class, personal entertainment screens for all classes, and Wi-Fi service for all passengers. According to the airline, the cost for tickets to Paris on selected dates in March will start at $522.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Effort to Bring Airlines Back to Israel<\/strong><br \/>\nIsrael is considered an &#8220;island&#8221; in terms of air travel, and not a popular stop-over destination. Hence, major global airlines found it relatively easy to avoid the risks associated with flying to Israel during wartime &#8211; both physical threats, and the potential for cancellations by passengers or Ben Gurion airport shutting down. El Al remained the sole airline operating consistently, causing significant hikes in tickets prices.<\/p>\n<p>Since the ceasefires on both fronts went into effect, various parties in Israel &#8211; from travelers to the Israel Airport Authority &#8211; have been working to persuade foreign airlines to resume flights in order to lower flight costs and restore market competition.<\/p>\n<p>Air France\u2019s decision to resume flights to Israel reflects renewed trust in Israel\u2019s security and marks a positive step toward revitalizing international air travel and economic growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>France&#8217;s national airline has officially reactivated flights to Israel, demonstrating trust in the stability of Israel&#8217;s airspace security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":13425,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,85,82,2564],"tags":[2696,1676,1589],"class_list":["post-13424","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-economy","category-positive-moment","category-car","category-travel","tag-air-france","tag-ben-gurion-airport","tag-el-al"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.7 (Yoast SEO v24.7) -
