Israir to begin offering direct flights to Bahrain on January 31
Israir announces it will begin offering direct flights from Israel to Bahrain on January 31, after the two countries inked an aviation agreement as part of their deal to normalize diplomatic ties.
Tickets will cost $249 and there will initially be two flights a week, according to Hebrew media reports.
The announcement comes a day before the Knesset is expected to vote on the normalization agreement with Bahrain. If a majority of MKs approve the deal, as is likely, it will go to the government for final ratification.
