AFTER MORE THAN 4 HOURS OF DELAYS: FLIGHT TO VILNIUS FINALLY DEPARTS After being delayed for more than four hours, an Arkia flight from Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) to Vilnius Airport (VNO) finally departed at approximately 9:30 AM. The flight, carrying hundreds of passengers, including Rabbanim traveling with Kupat Ha’ir, was originally scheduled to depart around 5:00 AM. After passengers had already boarded, a technical issue forced them off the aircraft, leaving them waiting for hours at the gate. Passengers reported that they were provided with water and only a limited amount of pretzels during the long wait. The group is now on its way to Vilnius (VNO), from where they will continue by ground transportation to Radin, Belarus, to visit the kever of the Chofetz Chaim, for his yahrtzeit.
