In a proactive response to the evolving security landscape in the Middle East, SWISS Airlines has announced a temporary suspension of its flight operations to and from Tel Aviv. The decision, effective immediately, will remain in place until Monday, October 14th.
SWISS has emphasized that the safety and well-being of its passengers and crew members are of paramount importance and drive all operational decisions. The airline is actively monitoring the situation closely, consulting with safety experts, and maintaining open communication with relevant authorities in Switzerland and Israel. This rigorous approach ensures that decisions are based on the latest, most reliable information available.
For passengers whose travel plans have been impacted by the suspension, SWISS is offering flexible options. The airline is contacting travelers scheduled on the now-cancelled flights, providing them with the choice to reschedule their flights to a later date at no additional cost or to receive a full refund of their ticket price.
While acknowledging the inconvenience this decision may cause, SWISS reaffirms its commitment to prioritizing the safety and well-being of its stakeholders. The airline will continue to closely monitor the situation in the region and plans to resume services to Tel Aviv as soon as conditions permit.
