The return of these airlines illustrates the trend in the aviation industry to gradually normalize connections to Israel.
Flights are resuming despite the fact that the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) continues to advise against travel to Israel. The FDFA tightened its warnings in June.
