Air Canada cancels flights to Tel Aviv in line with European, US cancellation
TORONTO - Canada's largest airline has canceled a flight to Israel and is monitoring the situation after a Hamas rocket exploded near Tel Aviv's airport.
The move comes after a number of airlines across the world cancelled flights and after the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration told U.S. airlines they are prohibited from flying to the Tel Aviv airport
Air Canada spokeswoman Isabelle Arthur said the flight Tuesday evening was canceled and they will continue to evaluate future flights.
Transport Canada spokeswoman Ashley Kelahear said decisions to cancel flights are made by the airlines themselves.
