Ben Gurion Airport's parking facilities are completely full and will remain so until further notice, the Israel Airports Authority announced Sunday. The shortage stems from a significant surge in passenger traffic during the High Holidays.

In response to the situation, the Authority has issued an unusual request to travelers and those dropping them off, urging them to avoid arriving at the airport in private vehicles. Instead, passengers are advised to utilize public transportation to reach the airport.

The Israel Airports Authority apologized for the inconvenience caused and asked for the public's understanding. They stated that further updates regarding parking availability will be provided if the situation changes.

The announcement comes as the airport experiences a substantial increase in the number of travelers passing through during the High Holiday period.
