Conner and Oliver were in Israel to participate in a slew of launch events for the new Dreamliner fleet. During the visit, Conner met with Transpiration Minister Israel Katz, had a tour of the archeological park at Cesarea and held talks with the El Al management. He also spoke before 1,200 leading tourism and travel industry professionals in Tel Aviv.
