flag Israel’s antitrust body plans to fine El Al $39 million for inflated fares during the Gaza war, citing monopoly-like control and excessive price hikes.

flag Israel’s Competition Authority plans to fine El Al $39 million for charging excessive fares during the Gaza war, citing a 16% average price increase and up to 31% on some routes, as the airline held a near-monopoly on 38 of its 53 routes after foreign carriers suspended flights. flag The authority argues the pricing was unfair given the lack of alternatives and high demand during a national emergency. flag El Al denies the allegations, calling the findings flawed and plans to contest them in a formal hearing. flag The fine, the maximum allowed, is pending final approval.
