Processing time for arrival PCR tests
Realistically, how long has it taken to receive results from the arrival PCR test at TLV?

I just paid for the regular option and after checkout it says it may take 24-30 hours. I'm arriving on Saturday at 14:40.

My wife and I arrived mid/late morning on a Sunday last month. From test to receipt of results was in the 6 or 7 hour range.

Test on Monday 5/16 at 5pm, results at 3am.

It's an irrelevant question starting 5/21.
