The Israel Airports Authority issued an unusual announcement on Sunday, urging travelers and those accompanying them to Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) to avoid arriving in private vehicles. The airport's parking lots are currently at full capacity, with no available spaces until further notice.
This severe shortage is attributed to a significant surge in passenger volume during the High Holidays (Chagim). The authority has requested that the public utilize public transportation to reach the airport.
"We ask to arrive at the airport using public transportation," a spokesperson stated. The Israel Airports Authority apologized for the inconvenience caused and asked for the public's understanding. Further updates will be provided if the parking situation changes.
