NOTAM: Aeroflot and El Al Virtual are glad to announce our partnership! From now on, our services will be “code-shared”, and pilots will be able to choose between Aeroflot and El Al aircraft. This creates a new opportunity for new routes to be added to the two airlines, increasing Aeroflot’s routes through Tel Aviv, and increasing El Al’s routes through Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Vladivostok. In honour of our partnership, we will be hosting a new event in which we fly from Tel Aviv to Moscow - the two airlines’ major hubs. We hope to see you all there, as this event will be open to everyone in IF.
