I was recently to CCS and I am not surprised at all. There work there is pretty much done at workers will and if they wish, they can finish it sooner or start later. On one domestic flight for 8 am they delayed by some hours as the pilots had had some party the night before with flight attendants and somehow half of the plane knew it as they had been on the same event - unfortunately not me.
I have never been to TLV, but I have heard that over there is also cutoff 120 minutes.
And I know well - CCS is not the best place to get stranded. I hope you get out soon.
