A draft air-transport agreement providing for regular flights between here and Tel Aviv will be presented to the government for final approval this week, External Affairs Minister Mitchell Sharp said yesterday. According to official sources, the pact provides for four flights weekly both ways, with stopovers in Paris or Geneva, plus at least one nonstop flight a week from Tel Aviv. Canada is expected to follow suit on the nonstop flight. The agreement was reached by Canadian Pacific Air Service and El Al after two years of negotiations, capped by a marathon one-week session in Tel Aviv that ended last Friday.
