Jerusalem to Ben Gurion Airport by taxi: how it works

Getting to Ben Gurion Airport is no time for surprises. Taxi Israel Ltd. has been driving passengers from Jerusalem to the airport for decades, and we know how important it is to reach the terminal on time, without stress. Our control center at 18 Hillel Street in Jerusalem coordinates every ride and makes sure your driver arrives exactly when scheduled.

  1. Book in advance: by phone or in the app, ideally at least 24 hours before your trip.
  2. Give us the details: your pickup address, flight time, number of passengers and amount of luggage, so we can assign the right vehicle.
  3. Off you go: your driver picks you up at your address and drives you straight to the terminal.

When should I leave Jerusalem for my flight?

Israel Airports Authority recommends arriving at Ben Gurion Airport about three hours before an international flight. The drive from Jerusalem usually takes 40 to 60 minutes, so we recommend booking your pickup about four hours before takeoff, and earlier at peak times. We are happy to help you choose the right pickup time when you book.

Pickups from Ben Gurion back to Jerusalem

We have you covered in the other direction too: landing at Ben Gurion? Book a pickup in advance, and your driver will be waiting to take you home comfortably and safely. The service is also ideal for guests from abroad and VIP travelers. See Ben Gurion Airport to Jerusalem taxi for the details.

Traveling with family, a group or lots of luggage?

When you head to the airport with children, a group or plenty of bags, a regular taxi isn’t always enough. We run large taxis and minibuses: a large taxi for 6 passengers and a minibus for up to 20, so your whole group travels together in one vehicle. Large vehicles are booked in advance.
