The Royal Dutch Airlines (KLM) reportedly announced that starting end of last week, all flights from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport to Ben Gurion International Airport will include a 40 minutes stopover in Larnaca International Airport, Cyprus.

 

The move comes due to "security concerns."

 

The report cites KLM as saying that "due to logistical constraints the flights leaving from the afternoon from Amsterdam to Israel will have short stop-overs in Larnaca, and from there continue to Israel."
