American Airlines extends suspension of flights to Israel until April 2025 Middle East Monitor

American Airlines has extended the suspension of flights to and from Israel until April 2025 amid regional tensions caused by Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Israeli media outlets reported.

Israel Hayom newspaper quoted travel agents as saying that all American Airlines flights have been removed from the booking systems until April 2025, which means that there will be no direct flights to Israel during the coming winter season.

Several international airlines, including Lufthansa, Austrian, Iberia, and Brussels Airlines suspended flights to Israel about two weeks ago for the second time amid growing fears of a regional conflict with Iran, the Lebanese Hezbollah, and Palestinian and Arab resistance factions in retaliation for Israel’s assassination of Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, and Hezbollah leader Fuad Shukr in Beirut, with the US strengthening its military presence in the region.

Israel has also raised the state of alert in anticipation of responses from Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran to the assassinations.
