Delta Air Lines said Friday it will restore direct flights between New York and Israel's main airport on 1 April after suspending the service due to conflict in the region.

"Delta's decision to resume service follows a comprehensive security review, conducted in close coordination with government and private-sector partners," the carrier said.

Delta's daily service between New York and Tel Aviv will make nearly 2,000 seats available per week, the company said.

Delta said it also "bolstered" its presence in Israel through a code-share agreement with Israel's El Al airline, allowing Delta customers to book flights on the Israeli carrier from major US cities.

Flights to Israel on other major US carriers remain halted, however.

"Our flights to Tel Aviv remain suspended at this time," said United Airlines, which last flew to Israel's Ben Gurion airport on August 8, 2024.

American Airlines said it "continuously evaluates its network and we have nothing new to share at this time regarding Tel Aviv service."

American's last flight to Israel was on 6 October 2023.

Israel and Hamas have agreed to a fragile truce intended to lead to a permanent end to the war in Gaza, which began with Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel.
