Israel's El Al Airlines to resume more passenger flights to US, Europe
El Al Israel Airlines, which changed ownership hands this month, said Tuesday it would resume flights to more destinations in Europe and the US starting next week. Israel’s flag carrier said flights from Tel Aviv to Frankfurt and Amsterdam would restart October 18-19, followed by Los Angeles, Miami, Sofia and Kiev on October 25-26. Flights to New York, London, Paris and Athens have already resumed the last two weeks. El Al suspended scheduled passenger flights in March at the outset of the coronavirus outbreak when Israel closed its borders to foreigners and it remains unknown when its borders will reopen. But it operated some occasional passenger flights from the United States, Europe and Latin America for Israelis. Most of its workforce remain on unpaid leave but El Al has said it would gradually bring a small number of workers back. <br/>
