EL AL Israel Airlines launches its first non-stop service for Japan in March

EL AL Israel Airlines will start serving two non-stop flights a week between Tel Aviv and Narita as the first scheduled services between Israel and Japan on March 1 2023, three years later than the original plan due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Today flight hours from Japan to Israel via Hong Kong or a city in Middle East are usually 15 to 17 hours, but the direct flight will reduce to about 12 hours. The direct flights will be served with Boeing 787-9.

Visitors from Israel to Japan were 44,120 in 2019, and those from Japan to Israel 26,100.
