After 15 months of bloodshed and tens of thousands of deaths, the prospect of a peace deal in the Middle East has already led to a major budget airline reinstating flights from London to both Tel Aviv in Israel and Amman in neighbouring Jordan. Wizz Air has resumed links to both cities. Flights to Amman use airspace in northern Israel.
Britain’s biggest budget airline, easyJet, is believed to be reviewing its plans for links to Tel Aviv. Last week Eddie Wilson, chief executive of Ryanair DAC, told Reuters that he expected the airline to operate a full summer schedule to and from Israel.
