Meanwhile, Philippine Airlines revealed in December that it was also seeking direct flights to Israel after Israeli officials demonstrated interest in having the carrier fly to the nation. Both countries are hoping that new flights will expand tourism and trade between the nations. Philippine Airlines submitted their application on December 9 to the Civil Aeronautics Board requesting 14 frequencies between Tel Aviv and Manila.
The Civil Aeronautics Board will be conducting a hearing on January 21 to finalize the results of both applications.
