    Israir Returns to JFK Sunday With A330-200

    Israir will resume flights from TLV to JFK tomorrow with their new leased A330-200. The A330-200 is an ex-Air Comet (Originally for Eurofly) and is operating in a hybrid livery with the regular Eurofly livery but without titles.

    The only days the departure will be shootable are Thursday and Sunday when the flight departs at 2:15pm and 12:00pm. The arrival time for the flight is 5:35am.

    HA! I was momentarily planning to go out and get it, but thanks to that picture, I can pass on the trouble now.

    The least is for two years and apparently when the low season starts up the aircraft will get the Israir livery or some titles. Keep in mind Israir needed this aircraft very much and will utilize it a lot.

    Israir hasnt flown the JFK-TLV route in a while... but maybe now they will actually have some legroom on this new ship.

    I just saw it depart on my way home, it didnt look like they did anything to it. It was still completely in old colors. Anyone manage to snap a shot?

    I was at EWR so I didn't go.
    I picked the ISR A330 on ACARS today. It has been reregistered as 4X-ABE
    Also lucky for us it has has ISR titles applied to it on the forward fuselage.

    From the looks of this photo the tail scheme of Israir has been applied to the A330:

    That must have been done within the past 2 weeks, before that she just had the israir name on the front
