I just booked Pegasus to SAW for a couple of people, there are at least 4 flights with seats today and tomorrow. From IST there are numerous continuing options of course. Let's hope they actually fly.
IINM contrary to TK who cancelled many (but not all) flights, Pegasus has been flying

Heard from family in Tlv that scuds landed near the airport and they think it’ll be shut down.
This is false, i have people in the airport now, a rocket fell in a open area near tlv

Yup. Just booked 2 seminary girls who are in lockdown in Har Shmuel to VCE later this week. Searched for a half hour before it popped up.
