El Al Israel Airlines resumed its full schedule of flights between the U.S. and Israel this week, David Schneider, El Al’s general manager for North and Central America, announced. El Al will offer a daily flight between New York and Tel Aviv, except on the Sabbath and Jewish holidays. From June 19 through the summer, the schedule will be increased to two or three flights daily from New York to Israel. El Al will also reintroduce its Miami-Tel-Aviv connection each Monday beginning March 14, and increase to two flights daily on Mondays and Wednesdays after May 4. “El Al is back all the way and better than ever,” Schneider, said, noting the strong public response to El Al’s resumption of flights.
