In photos: Why Iceland captivates travelers?

The three global U.S. airlines have suspended flying to Tel Aviv due to the war between Israel and Hamas. 

United was flying four routes to Tel Aviv prior to Saturday, when an attack on southern Israel by Hamas sparked war, including an Israeli bombing campaign targeting Gaza.

Delta was flying three Tel Aviv routes and American was serving Tel Aviv from New York.

Each of the carriers said that they’ll resume their flights when it is safe to do so.

“We continue to monitor the situation with safety and security top of mind and will adjust our operation as needed,” said American in its statement. 

The FAA also issued an advisory on Saturday, urging U.S. airlines and pilots to use caution when flying in Israeli airspace. 

Israel flagship airline El Al continues to operate flights from Tel Aviv, including to and from the U.S.

Numerous other foreign carriers have suspended Israel flying, but some have continued service, notably Turkish Airlines.

U.S. travelers can request a refund for flights canceled by their airline. Delta, United and American have also issued travel waivers for more flexible rebooking of flights to Tel Aviv. The United waiver also includes travel to nearby Amman, Jordan.
