We are proud to be part of the groundbreaking Space Startups program, implemented in collaboration with the Ramon Foundation, which inspires school students to explore the world of space and entrepreneurship!
As part of this program, 5th and 6th grade students from all over Israel will be mentored by El Al pilots and gain practical tools for developing innovative ventures in the field of space.
At the first meeting of the program at Nigunim school in Sha’arei Tikva, in the presence of First Officer Yehuda Novogrotsky and Ramon Foundation Chairperson Yiftach Ramon, the students embarked on a fascinating journey.
This is the first step in a broader program designed to encourage innovative thinking and develop Israel’s future generation of space entrepreneurs, and we’re proud to be a part of it!

We continue standing alongside the families of the hostages and supporting their global awareness campaign. Yesterday, we embarked on a special flight to New York, carrying around 100 family members who will testify at the UN about the crimes committed by Hamas.
During the flight, Jewish-American actor Michael Rapaport communicated through the cockpit with Jordan Gonen, sister of Romy, still held by Hamas, and Ilan Tis, daughter of Keith Siegel, who remains in captivity. Rapaport spoke words of encouragement, providing strength for their crucial mission at the UN.
To amplify global awareness, we named the departure flight LY157 to signify the number of days the hostages have been held. The return flight, LY134, denotes the count of hostages we still await.
Our pilots communicated these flight numbers with international air traffic control, serving as a poignant reminder to the world that 134 Israeli men and women have been held captive by Hamas for over five months, and demanding their immediate return.
It is an honor to accompany these families, offering unwavering support and we eagerly await the swift return of all the hostages.
The women of EL AL come from diverse backgrounds, but they all share a common goal and dream, which they accomplish every day when you fly the flag.
