The Minister of Transport has granted special approval for nighttime flights to Uman on Saturday night on Erev Rosh Hashanah, after the intervention of the Deputy Minister Meir Porush.

Transport Minister Israel Katz granted special approval for nighttime flights to Uman on the Motzaei Shabbos of Selichos, following the request by Deputy Education Minister Meir Porush who worked in recent months to arrange all flights, including the flight on Saturday night before Rosh Hashanah.

As known, this year Rosh Hashanah falls on Sunday night, and many wish to fly to Uman on Saturday night, but on the other hand they encountered difficulty following the instruction of the Ministry of Transport of the prohibition on night departures from the airport from 01: 30am to 05:00am, so that there was fear that those flying to Uman for Rosh Hashana may arrive just a few hours before the holy day.

About a month ago, Deputy Minister of Education appealed to the Minister of Transport to regulate the nocturnal flights. Following this, Ministry of Transport director Uzi Yitzhaki, contacted Director General of Airports Yaakov Ganot and asked him to take action for these flights to take off while maximizing the powers given to the Director of Ben Gurion Airport.

Today the Minister of Transport finally announced that he approves an exception for night flights on Saturday night before Rosh Hashanah.
