Eilat Holiday Vacations Packages

Eilat is a beautiful city and a lovely location to visit all year round. Visitors from other countries are advised to order hotel rooms in Eilat at least 2 weeks ahead of their scheduled visit in the off season, while ordering rooms in peak seasons, namely June-October and the holidays of Passover and Sukkot, is best done at least 45 days prior to your visit.

Upon arriving to Israel you will land at Ben-Gurion international airport. Synching your international flight with a flight to Eilat is extremely difficult, so most tourists make their first stop in Tel-Aviv, Herzliya or another city close to the airport and fly to Eilat on a different day, thus making the process of ordering an Eilat holiday vacation package an unnecessary one for most visitors.

 Filghts to Eilat and how much they cost
3 Israeli airline companies operate regular scheduled flights to Eilat:
Israir Airlines
El Al Airllines
Arkia Airlines

You can book a ticket to Eilat at any of the websites of the above companies and prices start at around 45$ for one way tickets, depending on the season and occasional discounts and sales. Prices for roundtrip flights start at around 120$ per passenger and your can choose between flights going out of Ben-Gurion airport or Sde Dov airport which is located in Tel-Aviv.

Ordering tickets online usually comes with a small discount not available when ordering by phone. The three airline companies mentioned above all have English versions of their websites aimed at international visitors.

Be aware that flight departures from one airport may land in another, so before leaving your rented car in one airport – make sure the flight also lands back in that same airport.

 Hotel reservations to Eilat
As mentioned above, Eilat vacation packages are usually not an applicable idea, so you will need to reserve your hotel room separately. Most Israeli travel websites are available only in Hebrew so you can have a friend or relative who speaks the language order online for you, again online hotel reservation usually include a discount of some sort.

Hotel prices vary depending on location and beach proximity, star level, amenities offered, number of meals included etc.

The Isrotel hotel chain is Eilat's biggest hotel operator with 8 different location across the city ranging from mid-priced family hotels such as Royal Garden or King Solomon to top class luxury hotels such as Royal Beach .

It is possible to preorder your rooms and airplane tickets separately while in your home country and, and it is best to do so in the Israeli websites as you get to save the agent commissions charged by all sites such as Expedia, Orbitz and all others.

Ordering direct from Isrotel and one of the Israeli airline companies will save this commission and ultimately lower the price of your Eilat vacation.
