The Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem is now working with EL AL Israel Airlines to make checking in easier than ever. Beginning this month, guests will be able to check in for EL AL flights departing Ben Gurion Airport and check their luggage at the hotel. The hotel will transport the luggage via private courier to the airport ahead of guests, eliminating the need for guests to heft luggage around the airport and through security. This new service is available for about $140 plus VAT per person, up to seven people. The service is operated by Premium Check In, which currently provides the same service to Israeli EL AL passengers leaving from their homes.
“Our vision is firmly focused on promising our guests that every aspect of their stay is defined by luxury and relaxation. With this agreement, our guests can enjoy True Waldorf Service until their very last moments in Israel and benefit from a natural partnership between two of the world’s premiere travel brands: Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem and El Al Airways,” said Guy Klaiman, general manager, Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem.

Sep 17, 2026High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture
It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
