Air Haifa resumes operations from Haifa: "Returning home"
Air Haifa resumed its operations from Haifa Airport today, after being forced to temporarily transfer its operations to Ben Gurion Airport during the operation. With the reopening of the airport, the company resumed operations from its home base in the north, a move that allows it to resume its flights to nearby destinations in Europe.
At this stage, the port is reactivating international flights to Greece and Cyprus, including Athens and Larnaca.
"The northern skies are reopening"
Minister of Transportation and Road Safety, Miri Regev, welcomed the resumption of activity and said: "The northern skies are reopening to international flights after a complex period. The return of operations from Haifa Airport is a significant step in strengthening Israel's air connectivity, developing the north, and making flights accessible to the general public. We will continue to work to expand destinations and strengthen Israeli aviation throughout the country."
Returning to normality — and strengthening the status of the North
The resumption of activity at Haifa Airport is significant news for residents of the north, enabling shorter travel times, greater accessibility to international flights, and opening new opportunities for tourism and economic development.
