El Al starts flying travelers out of Israel as Miami service remains suspended![]() El Al began limited flights from Israel to the United States on Monday to help thousands of people get home after being stranded as missiles to and from Iran closed airspace. Dubbed “rescue flights,” Israel’s national carrier started leaving Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion International Airport on June 23 with one flight each to New York-JFK and Los Angeles International Airport. Service to and from Miami International Airport remains suspended. Over the next day, on June 24, El Al will operate two more flights to New York-JFK, one to Newark and one to Los Angeles, said Elie Rosenfeld, an airline spokesperson. These flights will continue in the coming days until normal Israeli airspace is restored, he said. The airline will also add cities in Europe and Asia. People living or based in South Florida but now in Israel can board the flights, but passengers must first register on El Al’s website before getting picked. That’s because the airline is limited by Israeli government approval to transporting 50 people per flight. At least 25,000 flight requests have been made on El Al’s website since the night of June 21, when registration opened, Rosenfeld said. Chosen passengers will get email updates from El Al. But they won’t be able to return to Israel for at least 30 days
