AMAZING! Arkia offers 25% off all its flights abroad for New Years
The Israeli airline has decided to start the civilian new year with a discount for anyone flying from Israel to Europe, if they order the flight in the next 25 hours.
The Israeli airline company Arkia said today (Tuesday) that it is offering 25% all flights during New Year's, to all destinations that the airline services, which are mostly within Europe.
According to the company, anyone who orders an Arkia flight between 3 PM Israel time today and 4 PM Israel time tomorrow - including for Passover and summer flights - will get 25% off that flight if they order via their website.
Einat Junger, Deputy CEO of Marketing for Arkia said that "the Israeli public has gone through a difficult year and looks for every opportunity to take a breather and recharge their batteries," which this discount is meant to help.
This gesture comes as a great relief to Israelis who have had to deal with ever higher flight prices and cancelled flights over a year of war, with many airlines staying away from servicing the country for months or over a year and some reentering Israel only to leave whenever missiles start to be fired again.
The Israeli government has looked at a number of possible ways to alleviate this bottleneck, including insurance and fee relief and price caps, the latter of which were recently announced by Transportation Minister Miri Regev.
