El Al said on Tuesday that it will operate evacuation flights from Larnaca, Athens, Rome, Milan, and Paris starting on Wednesday, with Arkia Airlines saying it will also join these efforts, updating information regarding flights every afternoon.

El Al’s first flights are already fully booked. Passengers will receive notifications in this regard on Tuesday. For future flights, El Al will send messages to customers whose previous flights were canceled.

Flight prioritization will be based on the cancellation time of the original flight, as well as exceptional humanitarian cases, such as medical emergencies.

Arkia Airlines also said on Tuesday that it will operate evacuation flights to Israel daily, at the instructions of the Israel Airports Authority and security officials.

Flight schedules and destination locations will be updated daily in the afternoon, the day before the flight is scheduled to leave.
