Flights from Rome and Istanbul: While thousands of Israelis are stuck abroad, private jets with Israeli registration can land in Israel and passengers have to go through an exceptions committee

Ben Gurion Airport has been closed to commercial flights for almost a week, and a few passengers entered Israel during this period.

In recent days, many attempts have been made by Israelis who are stuck around the world to return to Israel, one of the options allows Israel to enter the country, according to the travel agent, but of course it depends on how much the Israeli is willing to pay.

In a conversation we had with a travel agent at a large and well-known company in Israel, she says, "There is a flight tomorrow from Italy at a price of $ 1,500 per passenger, if you want I can close the flight from Turkey to Italy and from there to Israel. ".

The travel agent makes sure we have an Israeli passport and is not willing to specify how the permit will be approved by the Exceptions Committee to enter Israel, "This is a private plane, a small plane. We will not detail how the permit is received from the Exceptions Committee, One today. "

The travel agent did not ask about our health condition, any emergency situation we are in or any other reason that should allow entry into Israel in an unusual way.

Currently, there are thousands of Israelis who are stuck in many countries around the world and are willing to do a lot to enter the country, but most of them do not have the option to pay almost 7,000 shekels for a one-way ticket to Israel.

The cabinet meeting is expected to take place today at 6:00 PM, at which the continuation of the closure and the subsequent closure of the airport will be discussed.

Currently, the airport is closed to commercial flights until today at midnight.

It is expected that the government will approve a further extension of at least five days, and possibly beyond.

The approval of the closure of the airport also requires quite a few legal approvals, which currently make it difficult to pass some of the decisions on the subject.

At the same time, tomorrow a passenger flight of the American Delta company will depart from Ben Gurion Airport to New York. The flight will have passengers who have received approval from the Exceptions Committee. Israir's rescue flights to Frankfurt are expected to return to operation if the airport is closed.
