Impact of the situation in Israel on Finnair flights 

Due to the uncertainty related to the current situation in Israel, Finnair will cancel its Tel Aviv flights until further notice.

Finnair has canceled all flights to Tel Aviv until further notice due to the uncertainty related to the current situation in Israel.

Finnair will work together with The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other officials when needed. We do not fly to Tel Aviv or use Israeli airspace in this situation. Safety is always our first priority.    

We are very sorry for the situation. 

How do I know if my flight is cancelled?

If you have a booking on any of the disrupted flights, we’ll contact you personally via SMS and/or e-mail. Please go to Manage booking and check that we have your current contact information, so that we can reach you in a case of disruption.

You can choose from the following options, if your flight is cancelled

  • We do our best to re-route you to your destination as soon as possible. Please note that in the current situation, the availability of alternative flights is very limited. Thank you for your patience. We’ll send you your new flight information via SMS and/or email, and you can check it and other possible flight options also via Manage booking.
