Eurowings to fly between Düsseldorf and Tel Aviv

Eurowings, the low-cost airline of the Lufthansa Group, is set to expand its international offering at Düsseldorf Airport. This expansion includes a new direct service to Tel Aviv, Israel, which makes Eurowings the fifth airline within the group to offer non-stop flights to Ben Gurion Airport.

In addition to Tel Aviv, Eurowings’ Middle East network also includes services to Beirut, Lebanon; Erbil, Iraq; and Dubai, United Arab Emirates. By December, the airline will be offering a staggering 6,720 weekly seats for travel to and from this region.

Düsseldorf Airport’s CEO, Lars Redeligx, expressed his enthusiasm for this new venture, «North Rhine-Westphalia has a long-standing friendship with Israel, manifested in numerous city partnerships and vibrant exchanges in the fields of education, business, and science. With more than 100 Israeli companies headquartered in our region, the direct connection will not only foster cultural and tourism exchange with Israel, but also strengthen our economic relations.»
