Seems that El Al has retreated from Luton and didn’t even get to start their new Stansted service. Doing random flight searches to Tel Aviv they are only bookable from Heathrow now although even Heathrow does not seem to be bookable until September 1st. Also the airline looks like it is being taken over by the state again.
This will be a blow to the airport as ElAl was the only full fares airline to operate flights to Luton and further reduces the airlines that use Luton for scheduled services to the fingers of one hand. On the other hand there is just TUI.
