EL AL Israel Airlines Ltd. (TASE: ELAL, Hebrew: אל על נתיבי אוויר לישראל בע״מ), trading as EL AL (Hebrew: אל על, "Upwards", "To the Skies", or "Skywards", stylized as ELעלALאל; Arabic: إل-عال) is the flag carrier of Israel. Since its inaugural flight from Geneva to Tel Aviv in September 1948, the airline has grown to serve almost 50 destinations, operating scheduled domestic and international services and cargo flights within Israel, and to Europe, the Middle East, the Americas, Africa, and the Far East, from its main base in Ben Gurion Airport.
Israeli airline El Al is suspended flights from Tel Aviv to Moscow due to Russia's alleged involvement in the crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines Embraer 190 in Kazakhstan. Israeli national carrier El Al will resume flights to Russia on May 1, 2025, after a 4-month hiatus.
