As part of the actions to improve and streamline the entry of tourists into Israel, a complex will be opened at Ben Gurion Airport that will allow the passage and inspection of tourist groups arriving through the tourism organizers, in order to alleviate the traffic congestion by about 25%.


This was made possible after the Minister of Tourism, Yoel Razvozov, acted in front of the various bodies and brought about the unique outline according to which: an inbound tourism organizer will inform the company conducting the tests about the expected arrival of a group of tourists, and this will create a space for them, where they will perform the post-landing PCR test, for the purpose of approving their entry into Israel. This will facilitate the entry of organized tourism into Israel.
