O P I Flight Information
On your way to Ben-Gurion Airport you can take either an Egged bus (that leaves from the Central Bus Station) or take a Nesher, which is an oversized taxi. The Nesher holds around 10 people, picks you up at your door and takes you to the terminal of your choice, all for a very reasonable rate. However, you must book a time and location pick up three days to a week before your departure date. Nesher's phone numbers are: (02) 623-1231 and (02) 625-7227.
All international flights to Israel arrive at Ben-Gurion International Airport, about 15 minutes outside of Tel-Aviv. You can get flight information at:(03) 972-3333 in Hebrew and (03) 972-3344 in English.
