Tbilisi (GBC)- Georgia and Israel have resumed air traffic connections. The first Tbilisi-Tel Aviv flights were performed on October 29.
Disagreements between Georgian Airways, a Georgian airline, and Arkia, an Israeli Airline, were resolved by the transportation administrations of the countries at an October 28 meeting in Israel. A Georgian delegation had left for Israel on October 27.
Georgian Airways will perform Tbilisi-Tel Aviv-Tbilisi flights four times a week and Arkia twice a week, Giorgi Bokuchava, the head of the United Transport Administration of Georgia, told GBC. Georgian Airways and Arkia will submit a new timetable of flights on October 30 and
flights under the new schedule will be performed starting November 1, he added.
Georgian Airways will perform Tbilisi-Tel Aviv-Tbilisi flights Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. The day of the fourth flight will be defined by the company itself, Bokuchava noted. Arkia will reschedule its flights in the winter season and perform Tbilisi-Tel
Aviv flights Mondays and Fridays, while Tel Aviv-Tbilisi flights will be performed Thursdays and Sundays, Rafael Mikhelashvili, an Arkia representative in Georgia, told GBC.
On Thursdays Georgian Airways will perform Tel Aviv-Tbilisi flights two hours earlier than Arkia, Bokuchava noted.
