TLV Tel Aviv

How deep the TLV board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from TLV. This reads the same 110 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 41of the 110 destinations are flown by one airline
• 52destinations run less than once a day
• 24destinations have four or more departures a day
• 52.7%of the destinations name El Al, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at TLV

75 airlines appear on the TLV board and they do not hold it evenly. El Al is on 58 of the 110 destinations, 52.7 per cent of them, and on 15 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 217.1 of the 275.3 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Arkia Israeli Airlines on 42 destinations. 47 of the 75 airlines at TLV appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

An airport held this tightly is quick to book and slow to recover: with 58 of the 110 destinations on one airline, the second aircraft on a TLV sector is usually another El Al aircraft, and when there is not one the desk is looking at another airport rather than another airline. That is why the alternate airports listed above matter more at TLV than the destination count does.

How much of the TLV board is daily

Of the 110 destinations, 58 are flown at least once a day and 52 are not, 13 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the TLV board is flown about once a day.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: TLV to Torino (TRN) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 68.2 of the 275.3 departures a day, 24.8 per cent of the whole board. The other 105 destinations are spread widely enough that a courier who misses the first departure at TLV usually has somewhere else to look on the same board.

The ten destinations out of TLV where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 25 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from TLV

The desk holds the return direction for 83 of the 110 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On nine of them the return into TLV runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gaps are Paris (ORY) at 2.9 out a day against 0.57 back, Bergamo (BGY) at 1 out a day against 0.29 back and Tashkent (TAS) at 1.3 out a day against 0.46 back.

It runs the other way as well: Frankfurt-am-Main (FRA) files 5.1 a day back into TLV against 3.9 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at TLV

TLV keeps Asia/Jerusalem time, an hour behind Dubai in summer and two hours behind in winter, because the clock here moves and the Gulf clock does not.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 08:00 at TLV, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for eight hours. That is wide enough to settle a customs question at TLV and still make a departure the same day.

The night at TLV

14 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Paris (CDG) the door shuts at 00:00 local, so the last departure from TLV that lands inside it leaves around 20:33, on a modelled block of 4h 27m. Into Vienna (VIE) the door shuts at 23:30 local, so the last departure from TLV that lands inside it leaves around 20:59, on a modelled block of 3h 31m. Into Munich (MUC) the door shuts at 22:00 local, so the last departure from TLV that lands inside it leaves around 19:07, on a modelled block of 3h 53m. Those three departure times out of TLV are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where TLV turns up on the rest of this site

TLV carries two other pages on this site as well: the Israel country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport and the TLV transit page for the connecting case, where a courier changes aircraft here rather than starting or finishing.

The site publishes 53 airport pair pages that start or end at TLV, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Tel Aviv to Larnarca (LCA), Tel Aviv to Athens (ATH) and Tel Aviv to Dubai (DXB).

One of the 346 published hand carry lanes runs through this airport: Tel Aviv to Frankfurt. A lane page is the commercial version of the board above, with the customs, the ground legs and the price at TLV written out.

Eleven courier postings name TLV as the airport a courier here flies from: Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Haifa.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with TLV already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 110 destinations above.
