Only about 9,000 passengers took off and will take off from Israel today, a number that is significantly lower than the usual numbers. Our examination shows that the destination to which the most Israelis fly these days is Cyprus, today 8 flights took off and will take off to the neighboring country.
In second and unsurprising place is Greece, to which 7 flights took off and will take off today. In third place is the United States, while the only airline operating flights to the country is El Al, which will operate 6 flights today to a country that exactly a week ago exempted Israeli citizens from visas entering it.

In fourth place is the UAE with 5 departures, with a significant portion of the passengers passing through the Emirates on the way to farther destinations in the east. In fifth place are several countries with 3 takeoffs today, including Germany, France, England, Thailand and Russia.
Until before the war, the top destination was Turkey, with 41 flights taking off from Israel to Turkey on some days. An examination we conducted today shows that Turkey has completely disappeared from the map of departures from Israel. Israel does not fly directly to Turkey or via Turkey, all Israeli and Turkish airlines no longer fly to Istanbul or any of the destinations in Turkey, and at the moment it is unclear when this will change.
