Shalom everyone.
It was wonderful mini do with fellows FTers and their local friends, we went out for dinner afterward at King George restaurant near by, it turned out it is a great local hang out, lady at lounge recommend that place for us, however we were stock with gyro Gina, it happened to be closed already by the time we went there, and we asked local couple and they asked to follow them to King George, the food is huge and it is around 35 sekel ($8) for dinner. This will be a good place for TLV DO : We are heading to Jerusalem this morning. Toda |

I arrived at TLV after 8am for 10.25am flight and got held by security for 1.75 hrs. Home now, but my netbook isn't. Not pleasant. :(

What happen on security? I hope it is smooth sailing for us tonight
- solo traveler - full passport - very little baggage (a backpack) When I came back from the body search room, I did not see my backpack & was told I could pack up the contents of my messenger bag picked apart & scattered in a big gray bin. My laptop sleeve was empty, so I asked for the computer and was told it was "in checked bag." The electric cart took me to the plane just as boarding was wrapping up. Once on the plane, I realized I was also missing cords & my zip lock baggie of liquids. At EWR, I picked up my backpack from the carousel to clear customs & security, opened it up and no netbook. :mad: Went to file a report & headed to my next gate. Checked in w/ SFO bag services and found out my "other bag" was going to be flown in on UA the next day. Turns out the netbook & hopefully its cords were packaged separately & put on board. If Israeli had told me to look for a 2nd "bag" to pick up at EWR, I wouldn't be so ruffled. The netbook is at SFO & I will probably pick it up during transit on Thursday. Good luck to you guys! |

Lots of red flags, so I was questioned by a dozen or so people & body searched (pat down). I am (a Flyertalker!):

You got to love UA, got upgrade all they way to TPA :) We are going to be at TLV 3 hrs earlier today, hopefully we do not have to go that kind of security. |
Security check is very long process in TLV, arrived at TLV at 7:30 pm and by the time seating down at Dan Lounge it is 9:10 pm.
The lounge is nothing to write home about just general basic snacks. Enjoy our 6 days stays in TLV and have great mini DO here. |
