El Al Launches New 15-Hour Nonstop Flights To USA In 1 Month: See Map Now
The carrier returns to SFO on October 25, operating 15-hour sectors with 32 business and 35 premium economy seats.
El Al Israel Airlines plans to resume service to San Francisco International Airport (SFO) this coming October, marking a return to the nonstop route after ceasing operations in 2020.
The airline’s San Francisco service will operate thrice weekly, starting on October 25. This marks a renewal of El Al’s presence in the San Francisco Bay Area, a relationship that began in 1996.
The news centers on El Al’s reintroduction of the route to SFO, reviving a long-standing connection with the San Francisco market that has been intermittent since its initial launch.
No additional details are provided in the material about aircraft type, flight duration, schedules beyond the thrice-weekly cadence, or the exact year-by-year operational history beyond noting a halt in 2020.
