Israel Opens Second International Airport For Safe Alternative

Signs of the Last Days® MinistryNews

Israel inaugurated a new international airport in its desert south that can serve as an emergency alternative to Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport in times of conflict and boost tourism to the nearby Red Sea.

The Ramon Airport is named for Israel’s first astronaut who was tragically killed in the Columbia Space Shuttle disaster in 2003.

The airport plans to have both domestic and international flights and will give Israel further strategic capabilities in times of emergency giving Israel another airfield so that aviation routes will not be harmed.

The $500 million facility is located alongside the main highway leading north from the Red Sea resort city of Eilat, about 18 kilometers (11 miles) north of the city and of the adjacent Jordanian port of Aqaba.

The 3,600 meter-long (11,800 feet) runway can accommodate large airliners that can take off for long-haul flights. The airport has parking spaces for 60 aircraft, enough for all the aircraft belonging to Israel’s civilian carriers, if needed.

The Israel Airports Authority has said that the plans for the Ramon project were revised in light of lessons learned during the 2014 Gaza war, to ensure it could serve as an alternative in times of conflict.

After a rocket fired by Hamas terrorists in Gaza hit near the perimeter of Ben Gurion Airport in 2014, international carriers suspended flights.

In an emergency, not only will Israel’s entire passenger air fleet be able to land and park at Ramon Airport, but also additional aircraft as needed.
