Israel’s second largest airline restarts London to Tel Aviv route
Arika will operate six weekly flights to and from Stansted
Israel’s second largest airline has announced the resumption of its Tel Aviv-London route.
Arkia will operate six direct flights to and from Stansted Airport, starting in August.
In September and October, it will operate three weekly flights on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.
Arkia chief executive, Oz Berlovich told Jewish News: “We listen to the needs of our customers, and as promised, we are now implementing and responding to the high demand for this popular route among Israelis. Stansted Airport is fast, convenient, and efficient, with excellent transport links, providing great access to central London.”
Budget airline EasyJet will now not resume flights to and from Tel Aviv until late March 2026, having cancelled previous plans to restart operations this June. Wizz Air plans to resume flights between UK and Israel on 8 August, four weeks ahead of its previously announced schedule.
