Israeli flights face delays as Greece imposes air traffic restrictions

Israeli airports are bracing for disruptions to outbound flights over the coming hours due to congestion in airspace over Greece. Greece’s aviation authorities have implemented restrictions on the number of aircraft permitted to transit through their airspace en route to Europe, according to a statement from Israel’s airports authority issued on Wednesday. The measures, designed to manage heavy air traffic demand, are expected to cause delays for passengers departing from Ben Gurion Airport. Airlines operating routes through Greek airspace are advised to prepare for potential schedule adjustments as the temporary restrictions remain in effect.
