El Al starts flying travelers out of Israel as Miami service remains suspended
Briefly

El Al Airlines commenced limited "rescue flights" from Israel to the U.S. on June 23, as missile threats from Iran closed airspace and stranded many travelers. Initially offering flights to New York-JFK and Los Angeles, the airline plans to expand its services to various locations including European and Asian cities. Each flight can only carry 50 passengers, requiring prior registration on the airline's website due to government regulations. A significant demand is evident, with over 25,000 requests already submitted since registration opened. The service will continue until airspace normalizes, ensuring assistance for those affected.
