Please read the introduction first.


If you like to find out whom you may meet at the airport or at the taxi back to the airport list yourself here. Everything here is voluntarily, no need for real names etc.

Flight numbers are helpful for those waiting for you at the airport to check whether your flight is on time etc., not mandatory.

To make it easier to group people which arrive / leave around the same time the first column defines the hour you are supposed to be at the airport - if you are landing at 11:20 you can expect to be at the terminal hall at around 12:00, if you are leaving at 8:30 you may plan to be at the airport at around 5:30 or 6 am (it is strongly advised to be at the airport 3 hours before your flight because of the prolonged security screening).

  • Comment: You can make it within 20 minutes through the whole checkin process into the aircraft but I won't recommend that experience to anyone ;-) --80686 11:00, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • There's no reason the check-in process will really be so long. For most Israelis, it takes about 10-30 minutes. For visitors, it takes longer - but in the big majority of cases, not that long. The 3 hour recommendation is based on a worst-case scenario.
    • The airport is rather big and there are long distances to walk. Even when there are no crowds the check in and the time it takes to reach the gates, even for Israelis is about 1 hour - 1.5 hours. Deror avi 06:57, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Moin everybody, I just spoke to a hotline Lufthansa, they close the check-in two hours before departure, she recommends about 3 hours early to be there. Tschüß Ra Boe 15:18, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Moin Zusammen, ich habe gerade mit einer Hotline der Lufthansa gesprochen, sie schließen den Flugschalter 2 Stunden vor Abflug, sie empfiehlt ca. 3 Stunden früher da zu sein.[reply]
I flew Lufthansa out of TLV many times, they certainly don't close the counter 2 hours before the flight, nor is this the case for any other airline. It's just something they say so people will be on time. I doubt the person you spoke to really knows TLV at all. Harel 17:02, 27 July 2011 (UTC)#[reply]
Moin Harel, You probably right, because I did not think about it, btw. she works for the LH hotline in Turkey:) Tschüß Ra Boe 07:42, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Meeting Point upon Arrival

After the customs / immigrations, when entering into the arrival hall, right hand in direction of Entrance / Exit 1 there is a Kosca Coffeeshop. Meet there. Be careful: There are two Kosca shops in this hall - a small one left hand and a big one right hand side, when coming from the baggage hall. The big one right is the one meant here.

However, if local volunteers are to be found, please meet around them instead :)

The time in the "Hour" columns defines when you expect to be at the coffeeshop (why not use landing time?? - Because it depends on the passengers how much time they need to get to the arrival hall - whether they have to pick up baggage or not, from which country they come, need to check visa or only have the short interview.).

Thursday July 28th

The time is when you are in the terminal hall, not when you arrive/depart (see description above).

I can pick up a few people (3) by car in the afternoon (latest at 15:30 as I have to give back the car in the evening) - coordinate with me --80686 23:02, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If 15:15 (3:15 pm) is not too late, I'm interested. Otherwise, can do a shared taxi. Aude 23:50, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The car has to be back in Haifa at the car rental at 17:45, so I should leave at 15:30 at the airport (I expect a two hours drive, counting in possible traffic jams in T"A). I guess that unfortunatley won't work if I understand you correctly that your plane is scheduled to land on 15:15. --80686 10:42, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Can I hitch a ride with you, 80686? Will be arriving at 14:15. Do let me know by replying below or leaving me a message here. --Srikeit 14:59, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
