Delta adds direct flights from Athens to NY to support Tel Aviv repatriation

Delta stated in an update post to its corporate New Hub: “U.S. citizens in Tel Aviv seeking to return to the U.S. have new travel options as the U.S. Department of State charters flights out of Ben Gurion Airport to European destinations. Passengers will then be able to take commercial flights back to the U.S., including on Delta.” Delta is adding direct flights from Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport in support of repatriation efforts, the company noted.
