ITA Airways will restart flights from Rome to Tel Aviv on February 1 after a four-month suspension due to regional conflicts.
ROME (Reuters) - Italy's ITA Airways said on Monday it would resume flights between Rome and Tel Aviv, starting Feb. 1, after a four-month suspension triggered by conflicts in the Middle Eastern region.
Connections "will be gradually resumed, initially with one daily frequency and, from Feb. 16, with an additional nighttime flight, subject to the evolution of the geopolitical scenario," the company said in a statement.
Flight connections by several airlines between Europe and the Middle East are picking up following Sunday's entry into force of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.
Last week Germany's Lufthansa, which is fresh from finalising a deal to take a 41% stake in ITA Airways, also said it and its associated airlines would resume flying to and from Tel Aviv from Feb. 1.
