In Tel Aviv, which has a lot of traffic in the morning and evening hours, you may need to take the road a bit earlier by taking into account the departure time of your flight. Since the names of the stops in Tel Aviv are written in Hebrew, it is beneficial to get information about the route in advance by making search online.
Since trains are fast means of transportation, they are the commonly preferred options in Tel Aviv.
