    LONDON – Ryanair said Tuesday it will not resume flights to Tel Aviv after Ben Gurion Airport refused to guarantee low-cost terminal charges or confirm its 2026 summer slots.

    CEO Michael O’Leary had given the airport until Tuesday to assure that Ryanair flights would not be shifted from Terminal 1, which carries lower fees, to the more expensive Terminal 3. He warned that without assurances, the airline’s 22 Tel Aviv routes would remain grounded.

    Ryanair flights to Israel were already heavily disrupted this summer due to security concerns and repeated terminal changes. The carrier accused Ben Gurion officials of “messing around” with its operations and said it would not restart “loss-making” routes without firm slot confirmation.

    “Until Ben Gurion Airport confirms our historic summer slots and guarantees low-cost access, we will not return,” a spokesperson said.

    Ben Gurion Airport has not yet responded.
