Air Canada has extended its suspension of flights to and from Israel through October 24, according to an announcement cited by Israel Hayom. The move extends an earlier cancellation period amid ongoing regional security concerns.
Air Canada is the latest international carrier to cancel flights to Israel for an extended period, suspending operations through October 24, 2026. The airline had previously halted flights on a shorter-term basis. The decision follows a broader trend: as The Zioneer reported on June 8, Air France canceled flights through June 21; Austrian Airlines through June 12; and KLM through late July. The wave of cancellations began amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran. Ben Gurion Airport remains open, though several European low-cost carriers have also suspended service on a rolling basis.
