UPDATED 19 January 2023

Delta is canceling additional flights between the U.S. and Tel Aviv because of ongoing conflict in the region. 

Delta is continuously monitoring the security environment in Israel to inform cancellations to our flight schedule to and from Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv (TLV). Our hearts are with all who are impacted as our people work to find safe alternatives for customers. As of 19 January, the following actions are in progress:   

Additional cancellations 

Delta flights between TLV and New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) will continue to be canceled until 30 April 2024 as the airline continuously monitors the security situation in the region. Sales of these flights are suspended. Additionally, booking was suspended in October for TLV flights to and from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS). 

As cancellations are processed, customers will receive notifications via the Fly Delta app and contact information listed in their reservation. Seats on Delta partner airlines remain bookable on delta.com and through Delta Reservations when available. 

Travel waiver and refunds  

A travel waiver was previously issued for all customers who booked travel to/from TLV before Oct. 11, 2023. Note: Dec. 31, 2023, was the cut-off date for customers to make changes to their reservation including rebooking, canceling or processing a refund.   

Ongoing assessments    

Delta is continuously monitoring the rapidly evolving security environment and assessing our operations based on security guidance and intelligence reports, including the most recent U.S. State Department travel advisory. While we remain committed to assisting those needing travel, Delta will continue making schedule adjustments, including additional cancellations on a rolling basis, as needed for the safety of our customers and crew.
