Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air says it will gradually resume flights to and from Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport on December 20.
The announcement comes shortly after a ceasefire between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon came into effect.
Wizz Air says it will start operating a route from Tel Aviv to Larnaca with 4 flights per week on December 20. The low-cost carrier is offering the first 1,000 flight tickets to Larnaca for 50 euros (NIS 192) per one-way ticket.
The airline says it will provide updates on the remaining routes, which are scheduled to resume on January 15.
In October, Wizz Air canceled all its flights to and from Israel until January 15 amid ongoing fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, exacerbating the crisis in wartime air travel to and from the Jewish state.
