General recommendations

It is recommended to ascertain the flight times with the airline, 72 hours prior to departure.

Due to the distance between Eilat and Ovda Airport, about an hour’s drive, it is recommended to check in advance the schedules of public transport from town, and plan accordingly.

Passengers with pacemakers may not go through the magnetometer gate and must inform the security guards in advance in order to be referred to another point of entry.

When confirming the flight, it is recommended to check whether there is  pre-flight check-in for your flight. Pre-flight check-in can save time at the Airport. Pre-flight services are available for El Al passengers, with prior coordination. For further details call El Al (08) 637-1515.
