Route on the map
When to fly
December and the school-holiday stretch of summer are the costly end of the year for flights between Ponta Delgada and Tel Aviv Yafo. Work back from there and January, spring and early autumn dates are usually gentler on the fare, while July is the cheapest month in the listed fares for this route. Midweek departures can be cheaper than weekends, and Christmas dates need the earliest booking.
Airlines and what to expect
The mix leans heavily to full-service carriers: Smart Wings is the clear low-cost name, while TAP Portugal, Iberia, Edelweiss Air, Lufthansa, SATA Azores Airlines, Air Canada, British Airways and United Airlines sell broader fare bundles. Every itinerary connects at least once, because there are no nonstop flights on this route, and some combinations are built from separate tickets rather than one booking. Compare what each fare includes before paying, especially carry-on and checked baggage, because that is where a low headline fare can grow.
Arriving — Tel Aviv Yafo
Ben Gurion International is a major airport, so build in time for security checks and the walk to the gate. Trains, buses and taxis link it with central Tel Aviv, and the terminal is easy to navigate once through arrivals. Watch for the difference between terminal and railway station names when you book a transfer, and keep your passport and entry details handy because Israel's border checks can take a little patience.

Check before you book
- Check Israel entry requirements and passport validity for your nationality before booking.
- Confirm whether your ticket is one booking or separate tickets, because missed connections are not protected on the latter.
- Check baggage rules and carry-on size for each airline on the itinerary, especially for low-cost legs.
- Verify which airports your connection uses, since Ponta Delgada has only Joao Paulo II but a change may involve another city.
- Look at the fare calendar around July and December before fixing dates.
- Recheck connection times and terminal changes before paying.
