TAROM is the first Romanian airline to resume flights to Israel on Monday, and one of the first three European airlines to resume regular flights to the destination.

The airline’s press release, cited by Agerpres, stated that the first flight, RO 155, which departed from Bucharest on January 1, arrived in Tel Aviv at 23:20 under the command of Commander Catalin. Prunariu, current director of TAROM airline.

“Our mission is to connect people and transport them safely to their chosen destinations. The atmosphere I experienced in the passenger cabin on the flight from Tel Aviv on January 1 spoke to me about resilience and strengthened my belief in the power of each person to contribute to what we all want and need – peace and harmony. This flight is another step towards normality,” said Katelin Prunariu.

The flight on the first day of 2024 marks the resumption of regular Bucharest-Tel Aviv flights operated by TAROM. The company offers two weekly frequencies (return flights) starting from January 14. This activity, however, requires risk analysis applied to each race, careful monitoring of the situation in Israel, and close communication with the Israeli authorities in order to stabilize the operation. Currently, depending on the findings of the analyzes that will be applied to each race, there may be changes in the work.
