The only "real" European airline that flies to Ovda (about 30 minutes from Eilat) is Aeroflot from SVO. LY has a flight from CDG to Ovda via TLV on Sundays.
Connection in TLV is non-existing ... you clear immigration and customs, take your bags with you, board a shuttle bus to terminal 1 and check-in to your next flight on Israir or Arkia.
