Today (Wednesday, 20.05.26) Air Haifa's inaugural flight to Crete took off from Haifa Airport, as part of the company's expansion of its international destination network ahead of the summer of 2026. The new route, which will operate on Wednesdays and Saturdays, joins an expanding summer flight schedule that includes additional popular destinations, with prices starting at $99 one way.
The sixth destination for the summer: Crete joins the list of sought-after destinations
The route to Crete is the sixth of eight summer destinations that Air Haifa operates, alongside Athens, Larnaca, Rhodes, Paphos and Eilat. New routes to Mykonos and Karpathos are also expected to be added in the near future.
The company emphasizes that, as in other seasons, in the summer it will continue to offer a flexible cancellation policy, change or cancellation up to 24 hours before departure in exchange for credit.
“Crete is a natural destination — and we continue to strengthen the north”
Crete is one of the main and most beloved summer destinations for the Israeli public, so it is natural to add it to the network of destinations for this summer. Along with increasing frequencies and the selection of destinations, we continue to operate out of a deep commitment to strengthening the north and making quality and comfortable vacations accessible to the Israeli public.”
Why are prices to Larnaca at most times of the day $250 one way? Disappointment
Well done
When will you fly to Romania?
Well done, we will fly with you.
May they continue to Crete all year round
This is the largest island in Greece and attracts tourists and business people all year round, not just in season.
In addition, just before the casino opens
Many Israelis have purchased properties, some of which are living on the line.
Think about it there in the cockpit of Air Haifa.
A small question is why is the price of a flight to Athens close to the price of a flight to New York?
I wonder what the response is and I'm curious to hear it.
We are Haifa residents and would very much like to fly from Haifa to the destinations you posted. But unfortunately the prices from Haifa are much more expensive than from Ben-Gurion, why? We are thinking twice about flying from Haifa because of the higher price. What is the reason for the higher cost? If this continues, we will have to give up the option that makes it so much easier for residents of the north.
Exceptional service, quiet and pleasant flight, once to Paphos, and twice to Larnaca.
We park in a parking lot 10 minutes from Kiryat Haim, quick check-in, quick boarding, flight about 40 minutes, landing in Cyprus and driving to the hotel, just in time to drive to Netanya on the coastal road without traffic jams, so there will be more destinations in Europe and we will save the nightmare of driving to Ben Gurion Airport about 6 hours before the flight, the peace and quiet, and the courteous service are worth it all
