Israel & Georgia settled air service dispute
Nov 2, 2009

Agreed on frequency of the flights, as well as resuming flights in both directions. . Israeli-Georgian air traffic amounts to about 25,000 people a year
 
Israeli Transport Minister Israel Katz said last week that Georgian and Israeli delegation managed to come to terms on immediate resumption of interrupted air communication between the two countries.
 
The announcement noted that Georgian National Airlines company and the Israel's Arkia held talks in Tel Aviv on Oct.28. The sides agreed on frequency of the flights, as well as resuming flights in both directions. Air carriers of both countries decided to sign a new agreement, under which the "schedule of flights will be liberal and all restrictions will be lifted."
 
Arkia Airlines announced early last week it was suspending its regular flights to Georgia. The announcement came following the Georgian Aviation Authority's decision to renege on a recent air traffic agreement signed with its Israeli Civil Aviation Authority.
 
As a result of the unexpected decision Israeli flights were no longer allowed to land in Georgia. In return the Israeli Aviation Authority suspendedlandings of Georgian flight, which effectively means that Israeli-Georgian air traffic is suspended.
 
Israel and Georgia signed an air traffic agreement affirming winter airline activities between the two countries, some two weeks ago. Israeli-Georgian air traffic amounts to about 25,000 people a year.
 
In a separate statement the minister said that Armavia, currently the largest airline in Armenia, operating international flights out of its main base at Zvartnots Airport in Yerevan, submitted request to the Israeli Civil Aviation Authority to renew schedule flights to Israel. The company wants to operate two weekly flights during the winter period. The company terminated its schedule flights to Israel in summer 2007.
