You're reading: AeroSvit resumes flights between Tel Aviv and Kyiv

An aircraft of AeroSvit (Kyiv), according to the online timetables of airports in Israel, on Wednesday flew from Tel Aviv to Kyiv.

As reported, on January 6, due to the cancellation of Tel Aviv-Kyiv flights 54 Ukrainian citizens were stranded at Ben-Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv (Israel).

AeroSvit on January 9 announced its intention to resume the operation of aircraft that had been delayed at some foreign airports.

“At present, artificial barriers are being created to the company’s flights returning from foreign airports, and to the company’s resuming regular flights,” AeroSvit said on Wednesday.

Previously AeroSvit was forced to cancel a number of flights due to the suspension of their servicing at some airports, particularly in Warsaw, Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Tel Aviv.

The grounding of the airline’s aircraft at the airports, in turn, restricted AeroSvit’s ability to ensure the timely implementation of flights to other destinations.

The airport said that the decision of airports and handling companies was caused by distorted information in some online mass media about the alleged declaring of AeroSvit bankrupt. Contractors, according to their requests, feared that the Ukrainian carrier may terminate operations and payment for the services rendered.

Due to this, AeroSvit sent a written notice to all partner companies that it is intending to continue operations and fulfill its current liabilities.
