The above countries have since reopened their airspaces, but easyJet has cancelled its flights to Israel in the wake of the attacks, just a month after resuming flights to Tel Aviv after the October 2023 attacks. 

A spokesman said: “Due to the evolving situation in Israel, easyJet has taken the decision to temporarily pause operations to and from Tel Aviv until April 21.” EasyJet has contacted affected customers and says: “The safety and security of our passengers and crew is always easyJet’s highest priority.”

A spokesman for Wizz said: “Wizz Air confirms that it cancelled its flights to Tel Aviv on Sunday April 14 and Monday April 15, following the ongoing escalation in the region. The airline will resume flights as of Tuesday April 16; however, passengers may experience some schedule changes.” Wizz added that it is closely monitoring the situation, and all affected passengers will be provided with rebooking or refund options. 

KLM told The Telegraph that it has also cancelled flights to Tel Aviv on Monday April 15.

Are adventure tours in Jordan still going ahead?

Iran already had an FCDO travel advisory in place, and Israel is either orange (non-essential travel is not advised) or red (all travel is not advised), but the adventure tour destination Jordan remains green in the eyes of the FCDO, with the exception of its border with Syria.

The adventure tour operator Explore told The Telegraph: “Our tours to Jordan are currently operating as usual, and we have groups travelling in-country at the moment. At the moment, the situation in Jordan remains calm and the Foreign Office advice has not changed – Jordan remains open to travel. 

“We always have flexible booking conditions where we’ll look to swap customers’ departure date or trip, or offer a credit note, up to 10 days prior to departure, minus any irrecoverable costs. For anyone due to travel to Jordan in the next 10 days, we’re offering this flexibility up to the date of departure.”
