Arkia Announces Tomorrow’s Rescue Flight Destinations
Arkia Spokesperson – Update on Rescue Flights | Tuesday, 17.6.2025 | 17:00
The airline ‘Arkia’ announces that it will begin operating special rescue flights for Israelis abroad starting tomorrow (Wednesday), following approval from the Ministry of Transport and the Defense System.
Tomorrow’s flights will be conducted from locations near Israel:
✈️ Karpathos (Greece)
✈️ Larnaca (Cyprus)
✈️ Tivat (Montenegro)
The flights are intended for organized groups of Arkia passengers whose flights were canceled due to the outbreak of hostilities. All flights for the upcoming hours are already fully booked, and passengers have been pre-assigned based on internal prioritization set with official entities. The company emphasizes: There is no need to contact the service center – only those who received a personal notification have been assigned to a flight.
According to the Ministry of Transport’s framework, ticket purchases for rescue flights are made exclusively through the Arkia website, and open daily for flights the following day. Customers holding a cancellation voucher due to the security situation can redeem it during booking.
The company emphasizes that they are prepared to operate in any approved time window and continue to coordinate closely with security agencies and the Civil Aviation Authority to expand the rescue operation.
Important Clarification: Currently, there are no outbound flights – these are solely return flights to Israel.
Arkia stated: “We understand the distress and concern of thousands of Israelis stranded outside the country’s borders, and we will continue to make every effort to bring everyone home quickly and safely.”
Further updates will be published on the Arkia website, social media, and through media outlets.
