Ryanair, like most other airlines, canceled flights to Israel after the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023.
Since the beginning of the war, foreign airlines have canceled and resumed flights to Israel several times. Due to the reduced number of flights, the Israeli authorities closed Terminal 1 of Ben Gurion Airport, which caused outrage among low-cost carriers, forcing them to use Terminal 3.
Ryanair DAC chief executive Eddie Wilson expressed his hope that Ben Gurion Airport would reopen Terminal 1 if an informed decision was made.
Many American and European airlines have suspended flights to Israel, leaving national carrier El Al as the only one with direct flights to North America. The lack of competition led to a significant increase in air ticket prices, which increased to 100% or more,
Amid the high prices, Israeli lawmakers agreed earlier this month to introduce legislative changes to canceled air passengers’ rights to compensation for canceled flights to ease the financial costs of wartime air travel disruptions and help bring foreign airlines back to the country.
