From 03APR24 to 30APR24, the carrier will operate Tel Aviv – Dire Dawa – Colombo routing, instead of Tel Aviv – Mahe Island (Seychelles) – Colombo. Airbus A321neo LR aircraft operates this routing twice weekly (1 weekly for the week of 31MAR24).

    For the moment the airline does not list operational schedule on Tel Aviv – Dire Dawa sector.

        Last time arkia came to CMB the route it took tracked over the horn of Africa as far as i can remember. Could be because of the restrictions from the Arab countries with regard to the on going conflict. So maybe its a technical stop at Dire Dawa?
