As of September 2025, we saw Delta resume its New York (JFK) to Tel Aviv (TLV) route, a service that has been operated on again and off again for the past couple of years. Up until now, we haven’t had any official details on when other routes to Tel Aviv would resume, but now we know…
That being said, historically United has been by far the strongest US carrier in Israel. United already flies twice daily from Newark to Tel Aviv, and also has plans to resume service out of Chicago and Washington. There are no firm plans yet to resume the route out of San Francisco, but I imagine that will happen eventually.
As of March 2026, we’re also finally going to see American resume flights to Israel, as it will operate from New York to Tel Aviv. While American also operated to Israel out of Miami, that route was cut before October 2023. Meanwhile there was also supposed to be a route out of Dallas, but that was pushed back multiple times, before ultimately being canceled.
So I’m curious how the competitive dynamics play out between Delta and United, given United’s historical strength there, compared to Delta’s growth, combined with its partnership with EL AL.
Bottom line
In 2026, Delta plans to resume two additional routes to Tel Aviv. As of April 2026, we’ll see the resumption of Atlanta to Tel Aviv flights with the A350, while as of October 2026, we’ll see the resumption of Boston to Tel Aviv flights with the A330neo. Competition is certainly heating up… only time will tell how this plays out.
What do you make of Delta resuming more Tel Aviv flights?
