More flights on Israel-Canada route
Countries sign first official aviation agreement, allowing additional airlines to operate regular flights on Tel Aviv-Toronto route
Israel
and Canada have signed a first official aviation agreement, which will lead to a significant increase in flights between the two countries and allow other airlines to operate regular flights on the route.
Today, El Al offers four weekly flights between Tel Aviv and Toronto and Air Canada operates a daily flight.
Some 130,000 passengers take this route every year.
Giora Romm, director of the Civil Aviation Authority of Israel, says the agreement will help increase incoming tourism to Israel.
