Terminal 1 — Low-Cost and Domestic Flights

The Historic Terminal at Ben Gurion

Terminal 1 is the historic terminal of Ben Gurion Airport. Following an extensive renovation completed in 2007, it was reopened and now primarily serves low-cost carrier flights and domestic flights.

Food and Services

It is worth noting that the vending machines in Terminal 1 are cheaper than the food stands. It is recommended to use them for purchasing snacks and drinks before your flight.

Flight Schedule Changes

Domestic flights are occasionally moved from Terminal 1 to Terminal 3. It is very important to check the flight schedule before heading to the airport and to verify which terminal your flight departs from.

  • Check the flight schedule on the Ben Gurion Airport website before leaving
  • A shuttle runs between Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 every 15 minutes
  • Arrive early in case of a terminal change
