Arriving in Israel

International arrivals usually enter through Ben Gurion Airport, with border procedures and onward transport requiring more buffer than a routine city transfer.

Arriving in Israel

Why go

Plan the first and last day around formalities rather than a full sightseeing schedule. Keep accommodation details and onward plans accessible, and follow official guidance for current entry requirements. Transport patterns can change around the weekly rest period and holidays. If continuing to Jerusalem or the north, confirm the final connection before landing rather than assuming late service.

Useful to know

  • Use official border and airport sources for current document requirements.
  • Leave a generous departure buffer for security and terminal procedures.
  • Confirm onward transport around Friday evening, Saturday and major holidays.
