On average, 95% of the seats on the company’s flights were full.

At the same time, foreign airlines have still not returned to full operations in Israel. Passengers have fewer options. This situation helps El Al sell tickets at high prices.

Despite the high revenues, net profit dropped by nearly 14%. It amounted to $175 million. The company explained that fuel prices increased. Currency exchange rate changes and a one-time accounting expense also impacted the profit.
