Tel Aviv Airport Transfer (TLV) — Fixed Price

Tel Aviv's airport is Ben Gurion International (TLV), 15 kilometres south-east of the city in Lod. Journey time to central Tel Aviv is 20 to 40 minutes depending on the Ayalon Highway traffic. Rail from TLV's lower-level station reaches Tel Aviv HaHagana in 15 minutes and Tel Aviv Savidor Central in 18; both require an onward taxi to most hotels. Gett and Yango are the main taxi apps — useful once in the city but variably available at TLV during late-night arrivals. Shabbat (Friday sunset to Saturday sunset) shuts down the rail network and most local buses. A LocalsRide pre-booking covers Shabbat arrivals, quotes the USD fare at booking and places a named driver at the TLV arrivals exit.
