Israir awaits US FAA clearance after being approved by home regulator to serve North America

Israeli leisure carrier Israir has received approval from its domestic civil aviation authority to operate services into North America. This authorization follows a prior clearance granted on July 29th, specifically allowing the operation of recently acquired Airbus A330-200 aircraft to various regions. The airline intends to commence operations with these A330s in New York City. Israir is currently awaiting clearance from the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to continue its planned routes. Obtaining this final FAA approval will be crucial for Israir’s expansion within the North American market.
