Following Iran’s firing of more than 300 drones and missiles into Israel on Saturday, flight data revealed that hundreds of planned flights across the Middle East were canceled.
EasyJet has now announced that, “due to the ongoing evolving situation” in the region, its flights to Israel will not be operating for the remainder of the summer.
In an announcement to News, the low-cost carrier announced that it has halted operations until at least October 27 and that “customers booked to fly on this route up this date are being offered options including a full refund.”
EasyJet operated flights from Manchester, Gatwick, and Luton airports in the UK to Israel. Additionally, the airline informed News that it does not intend to halt operations to other nations.
Wizz Air, meanwhile, said in the news that although it had to cancel flights to Tel Aviv on Sunday and Monday, they had started operating again on Tuesday.
