Aircraft Clearance team,

Can you send the flight manifests for the MILAIR flights to Benzi (cc’d)?  He will use the manifest to produce the memos allowing everyone to leave the country on Friday. 

Thanks.

Good evening Benzi,

Have you been able to work out anything on the memo for the folks flying out on the 15th?

Thanks.

Benzi, 

Please see below, information on the two DoD civilians who will not be able to fly COMAIR. 

Looking for a solution for them specifically, but also something that “covers” all of the personnel who flew in on the MILAIR flights. 

Let me know if you need flight manifests or any other info. 

Thanks.

US Embassy Jerusalem,

 

Can you please assist.  We had 2 GS Civilians land at Hatzor Air Base (C-130) on 07 FEB 2019.  There was no Israeli passport control plane-side. They are lodging at the West Boutique Hotel in Ashdod.  The hotel is requesting a "blue ticket" from passport control.  They depart on 15 Feb 2019.  The hotel can be contacted at: ops@tamareshotels.co.il

 

Travelers are:
