According to media, Israeli airlines—including El Al, Israir, and Arkia—are reporting record-breaking flight bookings, exceeding even pre-pandemic levels. Demand is especially strong for flights to major destinations in Europe and North America. This reflects a broader return to mobility following recent geopolitical tensions, particularly those involving Iran.
Alongside Israeli carriers, international airlines such as United Airlines and Aegean Airlines are expanding operations in and out of Israel, responding to the sharp increase in demand from business travelers, expatriates, and tourists. These carriers play a critical role in enabling multinational companies to resume global assignments and facilitate the return of foreign talent to Israel.
Kan-Tor & Acco observes a clear rise in new visa applications for foreign professionals relocating to Israel, as well as a steady return of expatriates who temporarily departed during the recent conflict. The reactivation of international flight routes—especially by U.S. and European airlines—has removed key logistical barriers, allowing companies to reinitiate on-the-ground projects and cross-border operations.
This resurgence is also likely to impact B‑1 work visa activity, with growing interest from international professionals entering Israel for temporary assignments, business meetings, or intra-company transfers. Likewise, increased transatlantic traffic may drive corresponding U.S. immigration activity for Israeli nationals engaging in business, investment, and employment-based travel.
