German airline group Lufthansa said Monday it was extending the suspension of flights to Tel Aviv to November 10 as Israel is at war in Gaza and Lebanon.
It added that the group’s Eurowings airline also “will extend the suspension of its flights to Tel Aviv up to and including November 30”.
The Lufthansa group — whose carriers also include Swiss International Air Lines, Austrian Airlines and Brussels Airlines — has repeatedly modified its flight schedule in recent months due to heightened tensions in the Middle East, as have other carriers.

Its flights to Teheran and Beirut have also already been suspended, until October 31 and November 30 respectively.
Lufthansa had already announced that it would avoid Israeli airspace up until at least October 31 and that it would not use Iranian and Iraqi airspace “until further notice”, except for a corridor in Iraqi airspace for departures and arrivals to Erbil.
