Tel Aviv, Finally!

 24 January 2022

After months of waiting, Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL) will finally commence flight to Israel, flying twice weekly to Ben Gurion Airport beginning April this year, using Airbus A350-900 this time. PAL President and COO Gilbert Santa Maria said Manila-Tel Aviv-Manila flights has been worked out since 2019 but couldn't get clearance to fly since its launch date was postponed twice due to covid19 pandemic. (see earlier story here.) Israel is the third largest tourism market of the Philippines in the Middle East registering 71,500 passengers in 2019 following United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia.
