Terminal 1

Question for the group: Does Easyjet fly directly from TLV T1 now instead of busing to T3? Flying TLV to GVA in a few weeks with hand luggage only. Historically I have just gone to the HBO check in at T3 but I heard they may have changed things. Also does anyone know if there's a priority pass lounge at T1?

Yes, departures are directly from T1, and no PP (or any) lounge at T1

Bummer. Is there a hand baggage only checkin at T1?

The whole T1/long line thing is a significant deterrent for me to fly with them in the future.

I am only familiar with T3. Haven't used T1 for many years.

We have a flight in March at 8 am on a Friday from T1. UP flight, tickets with max flexibility, including priority line for security and luggage check (outbound only). No in-depth interview.

According to the article linked in another thread, T1 may be turned into a construction site next year.

Based on all of the above, and assuming the priority line is actually available as advertised, how long before the flight should we arrive? Should it take more, or less time than T3? Thanks!

Not just easyjet. I believe none of the flights get bussed to T3 anymore.

I try to avoid T1 at all costs if parking at the airport. It adds a significant amount of time to either your journey home or arrival at the airport due to all landings at T3. I'd even prefer a short connection on the outbound if it means T3 instead of T1.

If the UP brand has been removed and the former UP flights are now operated by El Al, how come our flight in late March 2019 will still leave from T1 instead of T3? Could this change between now and our travel day?

Its ELAL so anything can change. Only airline I have ever seen that tried to move forward a departure time the day before a flight
