SWISS Airline to Resume Tel Aviv Flights in July After Suspension

SWISS International Air Lines has announced that it will resume flights between Switzerland and Tel Aviv in July, following a suspension that began in March due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The airline stated that it is currently carrying out operational preparations to restart the route, including crew scheduling, aircraft allocation, and coordination with internal and external partners. SWISS also confirmed that it is engaging in discussions with its social partners to ensure a smooth restart of operations.

Several airlines within the Lufthansa Group have already planned to resume Tel Aviv services from June, but SWISS has chosen a later restart date in July to ensure full operational readiness.

The suspension of flights was originally introduced in response to security concerns linked to the war in the Middle East. SWISS said passenger safety remains its top priority when adjusting flight schedules.

In addition to the Tel Aviv update, the airline confirmed extended suspensions on other routes. Flights to Dubai will remain suspended until September 13, 2026, while services to Beirut will stay suspended until October 24, 2026.

SWISS continues to adjust its international network based on geopolitical developments and operational feasibility. The airline said it will continue to monitor the situation closely and update schedules if conditions change.

The decision reflects the ongoing impact of regional instability on global aviation routes, particularly in the Middle East, where several airlines have modified or temporarily suspended operations.
