During the years I have worked as a flight attendant for El-Al Israeli airlines, I have found that many passengers are very interested in the flight service routines the flight crew commits along the way. In this article I will structure the details that make the cross-Atlantic flight service routines, and will chronologically specify when, where and how long every part of the service routine takes place in tourist class. Please note that every step of this routine starts at the last row and ends at the front row.

Jaffa - The Old City and the Port
August 9, 2007 – 3:37 am
Old Jaffa is one of the most attractive places to tour in Tel Aviv-Jaffa. The city which has always been the entry to the ancient land of Israel is succeeding, even today, its traditional aromas and fragrances which have always characterized it: beautiful stone buildings, narrow, winding alleys, a fishermen?s port, artists? quarter, cafés s, restaurants and shops.
In Jaffa there are ancient churches, which are among the most beautiful in Israel, serving the city’s Christian community, with open doors for visitors and the faithful.
It is recommended walk to Jaffa along the Tel Aviv Promenade, which begins in North Tel Aviv and ends at the Jaffa Port. On the way, you pass the skyscrapers of the business center of South Tel Aviv and then you reach Old Jaffa. Like using a magic wand, moving from modern Israel to the magical Israel of bygone times, with city walls and stone buildings with arches. Instead of bustling, crowded streets there are narrow alleys and stone steps. In the center of the activity is the Clock Square, where can be found the Clock Tower built by the Turkish Sultan Abed-el-Hamid II in 1906. This is the traditional starting point for tours of Jaffa.

A Little Bit About Tel Aviv
August 9, 2007 – 2:57 am
Tel Aviv, often called ?the city that never stops,? was the first modern Jewish city built in Israel, and is the country?s economic and cultural center. It is a lively, active city with entertainment, culture and art, festivals, and an active night life.
Situated on a 14-kilometer-long strip on the Mediterranean seacoast, Tel Aviv extends beyond the Yarkon River to the north and the Ayalon River to the east. Hundreds of thousands of workers, visitors, tourists, and partygoers move about the city each day until the early hours of the morning, seeking out the city?s nightclubs, restaurants, and centers of entertainment.
