Ural Airlines keeps offering discounts: it has just reduced the price of the tickets to Israel by 70%. Since this airline is the only carrier that performs direct Yekaterinburg -Tel Aviv flights, Ural Airlines is trying to make the trip to the Holy Land more affordable to the local population, reports their press officer.

Anyone who buys a return ticket (Yekaterinburg – Tel Aviv – Yekaterinburg) between February 19 and June 20, 2007 will only have to pay ?319 plus the fuel and airport fees. The direct flight is available every other Wednesday and is performed on Airbus A 320.

The company’s Commercial Director Kirill Skuratov believes that, given the recent simplification of the visa-getting procedures and the traditional springtime increase in the popularity of trips to Israel (thanks to tourists and palmers alike), the demand for the offer is going to be very impressive.
