AnimaWings has announced the introduction of scheduled flights between Tel Aviv and Bucharest from Sunday, October 5.
Another Romanian airline is launching flights to Israel just in time for the Sukkot holiday. AnimaWings has announced the introduction of scheduled flights between Tel Aviv and Bucharest. The inaugural flight will take off from Ben Gurion airport on Sunday, October 5, at 9:40 pm.
With the start of AnimaWings services, competition will intensify on the popular route to Romania, where Israeli companies already operate alongside Tarom, FlyOne and HiSky. About a year ago, a Romanian company called Biz Airlines began operating on this route for a short period but had its aviation license revoked after less than six months of operation. Even before the withdrawal of the license, the company’s operations in Israel were interrupted following the Iranian attack that occurred shortly before the holidays last year.
