Hello and welcome to my flight from Eilat Ramon airport to Tel Aviv on Israir A320-200 (4X-ABI).
Israir is a charter compant that operating flights from Tel Aviv to all around Europe and domestic flights in Israel. They operating flights to Greece, Tirana, Sochi, Batumi, Odessa, Baku, Bucharest, Burgas, Bellgrad, Verona, Varna, Tbilisi, ljubljana, and they will start operate flight to Teneriefe island Via Barcelona for refuling.
Some of Israir flights is departure from Terminal 3 in TLV and all the domestic flights is departure from Terminal 1.
In Ramon new airport just one terminal for domestic and International flights.
OK lets start.

Cruising.
Starting decend to Ben gurion airport.
Landing on runway 21.
After the landing there is free shutle transfer to center train station in Tel Aviv (30 min ride), there is also bus center station.
Deboarding.
5 min ride by bus to landing domestic terminal, which is renewal landing area in Terminal 1.
Landing area in Terminal 1 is located near Fattal terminal lounge for VIP passangers, the new private lounge in the airpot.
There are passengers from Eilat that need medical assistance that don't have in Eilat, so they fly almost every week to TLV to get the medical assistance.
Because of closed old Sde Dov (SDV) airport in beach/center Tel Aviv, israeli airports authority make free shuttle buses to the hospitals in Tel Aviv, that passangers will fly on this flights.
The closing SDV airport result made less passangers flying to Eilat from Ben gurion airport and the airport starts to make decisions to make those flights grow again.
The way out from the landing area to the free shuttle buses to Terminal 3 or to the Sheba/ Tel Hashomer hospitals in Tel Aviv.
In conclusion there is just 2 airlines that fly to Eilat from TLV (Arkia, Israir), there would be maybe in the future another airlines that would fly to ETM (Airlines that want: EL AL, WizzAir, Ryanair).
If you don't want to take a flight to Eilat, you can ride by bus from Tel Aviv (5 hours ride).
Hope you've enjoyed the FR!
