side trips from TLV outside of Israel
I've read through several posts on side trips within Israel or to nearby countries like Egypt and Jordan. I'd like to try something more distant. I've been to Turkey so looking outside of Turkey/Europe. I'd welcome recommendations.

I assume that you want to return to Israel from your destination and not continue to the US. There is a wide choice of charter packages available to Medierranean destinations (Rhodes, Crete, Sicily, etc) and Eastern European ones (Prague, Budapest, etc). Unfortunately all the relevant web sites are in Hebrew. Try the Arkia, issta, Gulliver, daka90 web sites - hopefully "google translate" works on them.

I could continue on to the US or come back to TLV before returning to the US. I was looking potentially at Ethiopia, but tickets are rather expensive and miles at least on UA aren't a bargain

We had a wonderful time on out two trips to LykiaWorld, Oludeniz, Turkey. Fantastic food and there's so much to do in the massive site itself that you don't even have to travel into town if you don't want to. And if you have kids, you can safety leave them in the kids club where the have plenty of staff to care for them all day.
