(JNS) Israeli national carrier El Al announced on Tuesday the gifting of free airline tickets to Europe to IDF soldiers who have served in the ongoing war against Hamas.
“As a company that enlisted in the national effort at the very beginning of the war, we feel it is our obligation to give back to those who contributed to the country and defense during this period,” according to a statement by El Al.
Soldiers are eligible for the free tickets if they spent 30 or more days on active service since the October 7 massacre and are existing members of or join the airline's frequent flyer club. Those qualifying will only need to pay airport taxes.
Registration to receive the coupon code for the free flights is open until February 26 or until stocks last, according to the company, and can be redeemed until February 29 for flights departing Israel any time between May 5, 2024, and Feb. 17, 2025.
