It's Time to Come Home โ With Comfort, Dignity, and Confidence
For many Israelis currently in Dallas, Chicago, and other parts of the U.S., the question is no longer if you’ll return it’s how. With disrupted flight schedules, limited repatriation access, and safety concerns at Ben Gurion Airport, returning to Israel in 2025 isnโt as simple as it once was.
Thatโs why Israel Welcome is here.
We provide personalized VIP airport services and repatriation support for Israelis abroad. Whether youโre an expat, a student, a visiting family member, or a temporary resident of the U.S., our mission is to help you return home safely, smoothly, and stress-free.
2025 Snapshot: Whatโs Happening in Israel Travel Right Now?
1. Ben Gurion Airport: Still Operating, But Under Pressure
- On May 4, 2025, a missile strike by Houthi rebels injured eight and caused a temporary airport shutdown.
- Additional Iranian missile strikes in June intensified concerns, forcing airlines to reroute or cancel flights.
- VIP fast-track services and ground support are now more essential than ever for safe and efficient passage.
2. Tens of Thousands Stranded Abroad
- Over 150,000 Israelis are estimated to be abroad, with 50,000 actively trying to return as of July 2025.
- The Ministry of Transport and El Al have resumed limited repatriation flights, with 6,000โ7,000 Israelis returning daily.
3. Demand for Repat Flights is Skyrocketing
- When El Al opened a registration portal for special flights, 60,000 people signed up within 90 minutes.
- This high demand has created chaotic booking windows and limited seat availability.
If youโre in Dallas or Chicago, waiting for things to โsettle downโ might mean missing your best window to return. Now is the time to act โ with support.
