Ben-Gurion's Terminal 1 reopens to domestic flights following Iran war closure
Terminal 1 was initially closed in March following the outbreak of the Iran war, with all flights moved to Terminal 3.
Assessment
The reopening of Terminal 1 for domestic flights suggests a measured return to normal operations at Ben-Gurion Airport after months of wartime consolidation into Terminal 3. The move signals that domestic air travel no longer poses the same security or logistical challenges that prompted the initial closure. Further announcements about international flight returns would be the next indicator of broader restoration.
