United Airlines has resumed its flights between Tel Aviv and New York, returning earlier than initially planned after suspending service in May due to security concerns. This move is viewed as a sign of confidence in Israel's current security situation. United is now operating two daily flights on this route, making it the first major United States carrier to return to Israel, ahead of Delta and American Airlines. Despite the resumption, ticket prices remain high, with last-minute round-trip fares often exceeding two thousand dollars. The number of flights between Israel and the United States is still below pre-war levels, but the recent approval for Israir to operate on the route may increase competition and potentially lower fares in the future.
