Vienna: Ryanair suspends Tel Aviv indefinitely
The low-cost airline Ryanair will not be offering Tel Aviv flights from numerous airports, including Vienna-Schwechat, for an indefinite period of time. Capacity will be shifted to other routes, which will be increased. According to the current state of affairs, Ryanair will not be offering Tel Aviv flights from the DA-CH region, among others, in the 2024 summer flight schedule. It was originally said that there would only be a temporary flight break due to the fee dispute in Israel, but this situation seems to be lasting longer. The airports affected by the suspension include Vienna-Schwechat, Berlin, Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden, Memmingen and numerous other airports. Ryanair intends to return to Tel Aviv at a later date, but at the earliest when Terminal 1, which has lower fees, is put back into operation. Competitor Wizz Air maintains selected routes to the Israeli metropolis, but points out during the booking process that the additional costs for using Terminal 3 will be passed on to passengers.
