Italy-Israel flight connections
In addition to the already active flight plans of the Israeli airlines El Al (national airline), Arkia and Israir, there are those of Wizz Air, BlueBird Airways, ITA Airways, Ryanair and EasyJet
The resumption of air connections between Italy and Israel is proceeding gradually and strategically, thanks to the commitment of numerous airlines that are progressively increasing frequencies. This recovery plan ensures broad and diversified connectivity between the two countries.
A year of great symbolic value
The return of a dense network of direct flights between Italy and Israel is particularly significant in the context of the 2025 Jubilee, a global event that attracts pilgrims and tourists. This extensive connectivity supports the tourism supply chains of the two countries and strengthens cultural and religious relations.
Kalanit Goren, Director of the Israeli National Tourism Office in Italy, said that the strengthening of air connections is a positive and necessary signal in such an important year. The network of flights from Italian airports will allow millions of pilgrims and tourists to discover the wonders of Israel.
