Israel Raises Travel Warning to Turkey, Urges Citizens Leave

http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/israel-raises-travel-warning-turkey-urges-citizens-leave-37973338

We're scheduled to take Turkish for Pesach with 5 kids. Should I give this second thoughts given today's travel warning or is the secure area in the airport where we'll remain for our short stopovers (1.5 hours each way) not a concern?

I'm not a terrorist expert, but I think in the airport is safe, I've flown with Turkish I felt safe in the airport.

Most people were sure that there would have been a bomb in IST rather then BRU

Yeah but even so, the people inside the BRU airport connecting on flights were fine. The Turkish police also don't have the idiotic restrictions and seem as tentative as the Belgian police. I don't think it's a good analogy and that he should cancel his Pesach plans.

There shouldn't be any issues as long you don't make a minyen.

I davened mariv on the plane and shachris in IST Lounge there was no problem with it at all, just don't make too much noice.

I don't see why it should be a issue with DXB but I haven't flown there.

Why do you think a minyan would be a problem?

When I flew with Turkish there was one guy wanted to make a minyen and the flight attendants refused to let. (I understand them 100%)

I thought you were talking about minyan in the airport. Most airlines don't like when you make a minyan on the plane. I'd expect that just as fast on Delta and United as I would on Turkish and Emirates.

I don't think that it's fair to the passengers to make a minyen on any flight.
