What DUS to TLV looks like
The DUS to TLV sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Dusseldorf DUS to Tel Aviv TLV is a medium haul sector of 3,135 km by great circle, flown nonstop 4 times a week.
At the cruise speed this site models for 3,135 km, 880 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 4h 17m.
Dusseldorf DUS is a major hub in the network held here, 176 scheduled destinations and 290.7 departures a day. Tel Aviv TLV has 110 destinations and 275.3 departures a day.
Tel Aviv is one hour ahead of Dusseldorf all year.
The pair sits between Europe and the Middle East, a corridor where the site already publishes 66 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.

Average daily frequencies on DUS to TLV from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.

Between them the two directions put about 8 departures a week on DUS to TLV, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 58 of them join DUS to TLV.
| Connecting at | DUS to hub, flights a day | Hub to TLV, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kos KGS | 2.14 | 1.18 | 3,165 | 6h 02m |
| Bourgas BOJ | 0.86 | 3.86 | 3,182 | 6h 04m |
| Larnaca LCA | 1 | 17.22 | 3,155 | 6h 06m |
| Varna VAR | 0.71 | 1.4 | 3,208 | 6h 06m |
| Salzburg SZG | 1.57 | 1.29 | 3,139 | 6h 07m |
| Thessaloniki SKG | 3.43 | 4.44 | 3,152 | 6h 16m |
58 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Kos KGS, where the weaker of the two legs still runs about once a day.
Through KGS the routing covers 3,165 km against the 3,135 km nonstop track and takes about 6h 02m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 45m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Bourgas BOJ at 6h 04m and Larnaca LCA at 6h 06m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.

Restricted hours at either end

Dusseldorf DUS is shut to scheduled movements between 22:00 and 06:00 local, so a collection in Dusseldorf that runs late does not simply catch a later flight, it waits for the morning and loses a working day in Tel Aviv.
Dusseldorf DUS, night restrictions: Scheduled movements are restricted between 22:00 and 06:00 local, with a limited number of late landings allowed.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for DUS to TLV in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
