Traveling Abroad and coming back to Israel

 In this period, travelling has become easier corona-wise speaking. Nevertheless, there are still some regulations and situations in charge that you might pay attention to. The check-in in Ben Gurion Airport in August is very slow due to the vacation period! The security check is so much accurate that you can take up to one hour to pass it through. I personally took an airplane on August the 1st and I was asked to open all of my cabin luggage, remove all of the items and having them checked with the probes (which takes long time). While leaving Israel, nothing specific is required, but when coming back, you are asked in the Airport of the State where you come from to fill the following form before boarding the plane. https://corona.health.gov.il/en/flights/ Once in Israel, everything flows without major challenges. An SMS from the MoH could be sent to you, recommending (not mandatory) to take a PCR test as soon as possible (not in the Airport).
