Israir receives US approval to resume flights, boosting connectivity after a reduction due to conflict. Delta and United also restore service. Capacity aims for 175,000 seats in April 2025.
âThis milestone is a testament to our unwavering dedication to connecting people and fostering economic growth between Africa and Europe,â group CEO Mesfin Tasew says.
Delta Air Lines and United Airlines are requesting extensions from the U.S. Transportation Department (DOT) for unused flight frequencies between the U.S. and mainland China as capacity between the two countries remains significantly below pre-pandemic levels.
Speaking to Aviation Week in June at the GAD Americas conference in Miami, Monika Infante, the CEO of airport operator Aerodom, said an open skies accord would create major opportunities for DR-based airlines to fly to the U.S., leading to more balance in a market currently dominated by U.S. carriers.
