Travelling During the Three Weeks

Question:

Hi, We are hoping to travel from New York to Israel in June. Can we fly back home to New York during the 3 weeks?

AskTheRabbi.org answered:

Yes, there is no problem with traveling before Rosh Chodesh Av. However, it is preferable not to travel during the Nine Days themselves.

I wish you a memorable visit!
