The Tourism Ministry says it will assist tourists currently in Israel to register for specially coordinated departure flights from Israel once they are available.
For this purpose, the Tourism Ministry is opening a digital registration form that is being distributed through various online platforms to incoming tourism organizers, hotels, tour guides and other industry stakeholders. There are about 38,000 tourists currently in Israel, the ministry says.
The Tourism Ministry says it will consolidate and transfer the list, only as needed, to the National Security Council and the Transportation Ministry, so that coordination with airlines can be arranged to facilitate tourists’ departure from the country.
The form includes full name, phone number, email address and passport number, in accordance with privacy protection laws and regulations.
Tourists wishing to register are invited to fill out the form.
