Emirates will start the long-awaited scheduled service between Dubai and Tel
Aviv on December 6. From then on, the airline will fly daily with a Boeing
777-300ER between the two cities.
 
It was unthinkable for decades for political reasons that regular passenger
flights would operate between Israel and the United Arab Emirates: the latter
country did not recognize Israel. But that changed last year and the ties have
been tightened ever since.
 
Emirates is not the first. Since the historic agreement between Israel and the
UAE, Etihad, El Al and FlyDubai have already started operating flights between
these countries.
