Despite a slight increase in the number of passengers passing through Ben Gurion Airport every day, most Israelis still do not fly abroad for vacation and the numbers are far from returning to normal. However, there are those who are looking for flights for the day after and may have encountered one of the most interesting mistakes that have occurred recently in the aviation industry.

A glitch in the website, which lasted about two hours, offered plane tickets for $1.3, worth only about five shekels. According to a Reuters report, after the malfunction, Chinese airline China Southern confirmed this, and unlike many foreign airlines where similar malfunctions occurred, it even confirmed that it would honor bookings entered at this price.

The malfunction occurred last Wednesday and made it possible to book flights from Chengdu to various destinations at prices that are unusually lower than normal prices. According to the report, this was an unusual malfunction that lasted about two hours, during which many passengers booked flight tickets for only a few shekels.

Some tickets were slightly more expensive, ranging from $1.3 to $4.5. Passengers who received the notification that their reservation had been honored were asked to pay an additional $<> for port taxes.
