Israel reopened its skies this week to fully vaccinated tourists after ceiling its borders in November out of fear of the Omicron variant. According to the site, Israel will also grant entry to recently recovered individuals if they provide a digital certificate of recovery that can be verified by Israel’s Health Ministry.

Israel’s tourism industry has been hit hard by the pandemic. After welcoming a record 4.5 million visitors in 2019, that number plunged to just 832,500 in 2020 and just 401,500 in 2021.
