For the first time since the start of the war on October 7, 2023 American Airlines has announced that it will resume flights to and from Israel. The US carrier says it will renew flights to Tel Aviv in March 2026, thus joining rival airlines United and Delta, which have already resumed flights. The US media has even reported that the airline has begun hiring Hebrew speaking cabin crew in preparation for the resumption of flights.
