PARIS/NEW YORK: Several international air carriers said on Sunday they had suspended flights serving Tel Aviv in light of the Hamas militant attack on Israel and were waiting for conditions to improve before resuming service.
US air carriers United Airlines, Delta Air Lines and American Airlines said they had suspended direct flights.
Air France, Lufthansa, Emirates and Ryanair also pulled flights to Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion airport.
The pilots’ union for American Airlines has directed its members to refuse to fly to Israel, citing the ongoing war.
