Regarding the new TUS airways from LCA, a friend who was supposed to be on the first flight on sunday 14th, told me that it was cancelled.
He declined when offered to be put on flight early next morning.

This is interesting: Royal Jordanian to launch Tel Aviv-China flights (Globes - English)

Originally Posted by Globes
Royal Jordanian Airlines announced today that it is launching flights between Tel Aviv and the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou, a route that is likely to be popular mainly with businesspeople. Passengers will fly from Ben Gurion Airport to Amman and from there to Guangzhou with a stopover in Bangkok. The flight will take 14 hours.
It's a new destination, but what makes this a flight from Israel? It's annoying that it'll be 2 stops (not sure why RJ can't go direct), but this is simply a new RJ route from AMM. That you can book the journey from TLV isn't surprising.

Anyways, this route can already be done 1-stop from TLV on TK (IST), HU beginning April (PEK), or combinations involving BKK or HKG (among other options).

Tel Aviv - Punta Cana direct flights

http://www.dominicantoday.com/dr/tou...-start-October

Well i definitely would not have put this destination in my top ten list of new El Al destinations for direct flights from Tel Aviv. It seems however that this is just charter flights.

About time - I fly to Germany several times a year and always on Turkish because it's often 1/3 the price.

I can't see how this will reduce prices; what is needed is competition not another LH pricy flights.

Theoretical with more seats the prices will come down.

Looks like TUS Airways starts to fly

First route seems to be TLV-LCA. For an airline whose name stands for The Ultimate Schedule, here's a weird schedule...

I thought that their operating certificate was suspended. Has it been restored?

They do seem to be selling flights for this week.

Strangely their booking engine does not even show Paphos as a destination. That destination will be very popular with Israelis going abroad for civil weddings.
