Delta and American Airlines extend the suspension of flights to Israel as the war in Gaza grinds on
Delta Air Lines is extending its suspension of flights between the U.S. and Israel by another month, through Oct. 31
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Delta Air Lines said Wednesday it will extend its suspension of flights to Israel by another month, through Oct. 31, as Israel and the militant group Hamas show no signs of ending the war in Gaza.
“Delta is continuously monitoring the evolving security environment and assessing our operations based on security guidance and intelligence reports,” the airline said in a travel advisory.
The announcement by Delta came after American Airlines extended its halt of flights between the United States and Tel Aviv through March 29 of next year. American updated an advisory on its website over the weekend.
Both airlines said that customers with tickets on flights that will now be canceled can rebook, generally at no extra charge, or cancel their trip and get a refund.
