“These are difficult times from Israel’s aviation and tourism industries,” said a spokesperson for Israir Airlines.

The move follows a decision by Israel to impose a 14-day home quarantine on every person arriving in the Jewish State from abroad, regardless of whether they are citizens or not.

Domestic flights within the country from Haifa Airport and Ben Gurion International Airport to Ramon Airport will continue as usual.
