No response from federal agency to lawmaker about suspended flights to Israel

The Federal Aviation Administration, a U.S. federal agency, hasn’t responded to questions from Rep. Marc Molinaro (R-N.Y.) about its guidance to U.S. airlines in the wake of widespread canceled flights to Israel, Jewish Insider reported.

Molinaro, a member of the U.S. House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, had given the FAA administrator until Sept. 6 to respond, per Jewish Insider.

The lawmaker told the publication that “with no answers and Jewish travelers left in limbo, there’s a growing perception that the FAA and DOT,” the U.S. Department of Transportation, “are getting involved in anti-Israel politics. They fear this is a boycott.”
