I was already accepted for a scheduled trip… now what?
You don’t need to do anything; you already have priority status. Your Trip Organizer will send a new trip offer as soon as trips resume.
When will Birthright Israel trips resume?
Birthright Israel trips will resume as soon as it is possible and safe to travel. We are continuously monitoring the situation and are in close contact with Israel’s Ministry of Health as well as our own international advisory board of medical experts. We plan to take all necessary measures to ensure a safe, fun and enjoyable Birthright Israel experience, once possible.
How is Birthright Israel making its health and safety decisions?
We are working closely with Israel’s Ministry of Health and our special health advisory board. Under their guidance, Birthright Israel will maintain the highest level of precautions once trips resume and make adjustments wherever necessary.
What can I expect in the meantime?
In the meantime, registration is open on an entirely commitment free basis. Save your spot* on a first-come, first-serve basis.

I started an application but never finished… now what?
If you wish to travel in the near future, we highly recommend that you complete your application to get a head start on the process. We anticipate high demand once trips resume and priority will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.
How will my trip be different from a regular trip due to COVID-19?
While we still don’t know the specifics about how trips will resume in the Covid-19 reality, we can assure you that the safety and well-being of our participants and staff is our highest priority and foremost concern.
We are working closely with our special health advisory board and will spare no expense to ensure a safe, fun and enjoyable Birthright Israel experience.
It’s likely that many logistical precautions and hygiene rules will be set as standard during the trip in order to maintain a safe environment for all.
Every aspect of the trip from flights, staff, group size, accommodations, trip itinerary and food will be taken into account and adjusted on a daily basis if necessary.
