Head of Airport Authority: Every fourth summer flight will be canceled

Dozens of U.S. transport aircraft occupying parking spaces at Ben Gurion and Ramon airports could lead to a situation where “one in four passengers will receive a cancellation notice,” Kedmi said.

According to Kedmi, before June 16, airlines must be notified of the need to prepare for the cancellation of some flights planned for the summer and the holidays of the month of Tishrei. Kedmi estimated that in the absence of a solution, about 2.4 million air tickets would be cancelled.
