Heavy snow in New York cancelled El Al flights

Both Continental and Delta Airlines also canceled overnight flights from Tel Aviv to New York as well
 
Intercontinental air travel between the United States and Israel was disrupted by heavy snowstorms in the northeast, affecting thousands of  air travelers.
 
El Al Airlines was among other carriers that had planes stranded last week at Kennedy.
Several El Al Airlines flights had been canceled and/or delayed due to the severe weather conditions in New York, where up to a foot of snow was predicted by Wednesday afternoon.
 
Both Continental and Delta Airlines also canceled overnight flights from Tel Aviv to New York as well Tuesday night. El Al's flight #027 set to depart Ben Gurion International Airport Tuesday night canceled its flight to New York and flight #028 to Tel Aviv, scheduled to depart at midnight and arrive Wednesday morning, was also canceled.
 
Flight #001 scheduled to take off from Tel Aviv at 1:00 a.m. Wednesday morning was rescheduled for 11:30 a.m., but there was no guarantee that the departure time would not be rescheduled again, pending weather updates. Another Wednesday flight headed for the U.S. from Tel Aviv, El Al's flight #007, was also delayed.
