Netanyahu again flies through Canadian airspace en route to Washington

When the Israeli prime minister travelled to the U.S. on Sept. 25, 2025, Wing of Zion took a number of detours as it crossed the Mediterranean in order to stay mostly over water, and entered the Atlantic through the Strait of Gibraltar.

The flight route followed by Netanyahu's plane on Tuesday was a classic Great Circle route (the shortest possible distance) from Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.
