Low cost carrier WOW air will connect Tel Aviv with Montreal and Toronto, offering four flights each week starting September 12, 2017. The new service will be available for booking starting on May 16, 2017.
“We are thrilled to add Tel Aviv to our growing list of overseas destinations for Canadians,” says Skúli Mogensen, CEO of WOW air. “By adding a third continent to our ever-expanding roster of destinations, we can continue connecting Canadians with their dream destinations at the best possible prices.”
Passengers will still be able to take advantage of the WOW Stopover and make the most of their layover time by staying in Iceland for as long as they wish. It gives travellers the flexibility to break up a long-haul journey while taking in everything Iceland has to offer, all on the same trip. Relax in the geothermal spa at the famous Blue Lagoon in Iceland, and then make sure to have a mud bath and float in the Dead Sea once in Israel.
“We set a goal to bring new airlines to Israel, so I’m happy and congratulate WOW air, which is known for its long haul low cost flights, on its entry into Israel in cooperation with the Israeli tourism ministry,” says Yariv Levin, Israel Minister of Tourism.
“I’m confident the launching of this new historic route will significantly increase the number of tourists traveling to Israel from Iceland, Canada and the US, and will also contribute to the unprecedented trend of growth in the number of tourists visiting Israel over the last number of months.” Levin added
