- Shabbat and Holidays
- Channukah
- Candle Lighting
Question
My wife and I are going to Israel during chanukah.
During the flight we will be on the airplane from 4 pm to 7 am day after, so we will be all night without any option to light chanukah candle.
What do we need to do?
Answer
In my opinion, your best bet is to have someone kindle menorah for you at your house the night that you leave.
