On 19 April, Air India reported its flight suspension to Tel Aviv to continue till 30 April. The suspension was then extended to May 15, as announced through a post on Twitter. The upcoming resumption in May, with five weekly flights, is a welcome development for passengers between the two destinations.

Air India's commitment to restart these flights reflects its confidence in managing international air travel under challenging circumstances.
This resumption of services is expected to facilitate travel for individuals and businesses, serving as a bridge between the two countries despite geopolitical challenges. As the situation in the Middle East continues to evolve, Air India's move to reconnect Delhi and Tel Aviv underlines the importance of maintaining global connectivity despite adverse conditions.
