This is the best summary I could come up with:
Major airlines around the world have cancelled flights to Israel or warned of travel disruption as the security situation deteriorates.
It comes as Palestinian militants Hamas said they had targeted Israel’s Ben Gurion airport with missiles on Monday.
About 700 people have been killed in Israel since Hamas launched its attack on Saturday, with a further 500 having died in Gaza in retaliatory air strikes.
“The safety and security of our customers and our people always comes first and our flying programme to Israel remains under constant review,” a spokesperson said.
A spokesperson said a flexible booking policy had been brought in so customers could change their travel dates free of charge if they wished.
