Air France applies Israeli ban on crews of 31 nationalities

Air France is applying an Israeli directive that prohibits pilots and cabin crew of 31 nationalities, including Algerians, Tunisians, Iranians and Pakistanis, from operating flights to Israel, even when they also hold French nationality. The company has reportedly warned affected staff. The measure is drawing attention in France, where it raises questions about discrimination against dual nationals and about airlines complying with foreign crew restrictions.
Why now: Fresh report of an airline barring dual-national French staff from Israel flights over their other citizenships is controversial and newsworthy.
