Tel Aviv Air: Business operations permanently ceased
Initially, the insolvent Tel Aviv Air GmbH said that it would no longer be able to offer flights until May 21, 2022 for "technical reasons". The date has passed and now it has had to announce that business operations had to be permanently suspended due to the insolvency. At first, they were still confident that new financiers could be found. That now seems to have been dashed, because the provisional insolvency administrator has ordered the suspension of business operations. Tel Aviv Air states, among other things: "We very much regret that we cannot operate any more flights. All flight bookings have been canceled. We cannot offer you any alternatives for the flight cancellation. We can no longer respond to customer inquiries." The company had to file for bankruptcy in May 2022 after only a few chartered flights. For all inquiries, reference is made to the insolvency administrator appointed by the local court. Customers who have bought tickets for charter flights from Tel Aviv Air can register them, but the likelihood of there being more than a measly quota is low. There are also government-set fees for registering claims. The insolvency administrator wants to write to all creditors, including customers whose tickets are now worthless, in the next few weeks. The letter will then contain all the information and a form that can be used to register the claim. Only then can this be done legally, which is why you have to wait for the letter from the insolvency administrator. If you believe that the bankrupt company does not know your contact details, you can give them to the insolvency administrator.
