Belavia Launches Direct Flights from Minsk to Israel

Belavia has announced the launch of direct flights from Minsk to Tel Aviv. The flights will operate twice a week — on Thursdays and Sundays.

Departures from Minsk are scheduled for the morning, with arrival in Tel Aviv approximately six hours later, accounting for the slight time zone difference. Return flights will also operate twice a week, ensuring convenient air connectivity between the capitals of Belarus and Israel.

The minimum one-way ticket price starts at 671 Belarusian rubles. The flights will be operated by Boeing 737-8 aircraft, featuring a business-class cabin and hot meals on board.

In addition to Belavia, the Israeli airline Arkia will also launch direct flights from Tel Aviv to Minsk beginning in February 2026. These flights will operate twice a week — on Mondays and Fridays. As a result, air travel between Belarus and Israel will be fully restored after a hiatus, making trips more convenient and accessible.

Passengers will be able to book tickets for both routes in advance and choose their preferred travel days. Other interesting tourism news
