Air India Resumes Non-Stop Flights to Tel Aviv
Air India has started flying directly from India to Tel Aviv again.
They stopped these flights in 2025 because there were some problems in the Middle East.
Now, they are flying five times a week using big, comfortable planes.
The flights leave and arrive at good times for people traveling between the two countries.
The Indian and Israeli governments are happy because they think this will help more people visit and do business in both countries.
Another airline from Israel, Arkia, also wants to start flying to India soon.
Air India resumed non-stop flights from Delhi to Tel Aviv on 1 January 2026.
The flights were suspended in June 2025 due to escalating tensions in the Middle East.
There will be five weekly flights from Sunday to Thursday using Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
The flights depart Tel Aviv at 11:40 am and arrive in Delhi at 8:50 pm, and depart Delhi at 7:00 am to arrive in Tel Aviv at 9:55 am.
The Indian Embassy and Israel's tourism ministry welcome the resumption of flights to boost tourism and economic exchange.
