Israir announces direct flights to Abu Dhabi

Israir announces that it will begin offering direct flights from Ben Gurion Airport to Abu Dhabi, in what will likely make it the first Israeli airline to service tourists from the Jewish state heading to the United Arab Emirates.

The airline says it will begin operating the flights– which will take three and a half hours and cost $300 each way — immediately, pending final approval from Israeli and Emirati authorities.
