Call to "Le'an" ticket office (in Tel-Aviv) and ask them: Tel ++972-3-5247373.
You souldn't be hurry, they just today started to sell it...
BTW, prices are the same like against Ireland. It is highly recommended to buy for one of gates 1,2,3,4 (120 NIS, but better view and more polite fans).

Thanks they'll be supporting Israel anyway unless you beat us the previous saturday then we'll be worried about 2nd place.

For details about charter flights from Dublin to Tel Aviv contact "Arkia" airlines.
I know they offer only 329 US$ for Tel Aviv-Dublin-Tel Aviv for these dates so they operate charter flights in route DUB-TLV-DUB for sure!

Good price to get to Dublin. But are Arkia airlines waiting on the demand from Irish fans before priceing the DUB-TLV-DUB route?

Still its another option to get to Israel.

I'm sure they have already priced the DUB-TLV-DUB route...
I guess they sell the flights tru travel agencies with deals including accomodation, transfers & ticket to the game, but I'm sure they have not any problem to sell flights-only tickets in route DUB-TLV-DUB.

Can anyone recommend a decent hotel with reasonable room rates?

Here is a site with all of the hotel's in Tel Aviv : http://www.telavivhotels.org.il/eng/telaviv.php

I don't really know to recommend exactly what is the best hotel for the price that you will pay because i didn't really go to any of them. ( because i live 20 KM from Tel Aviv - in Raanana , Most of the Israelies that live 'in the center' of Israel go to a vacation's in Eilat or up north )

I must say that i DONT know how much money each one of them costs, im saying who costs the most and other categories only by what i think and the reputation the hotels has .

Costs the most:
1.David Inter-Continental = The best hotel in Tel Aviv IMO .
Location ( close to the beach ) = great-

2. Dan Tel-Aviv
Location = great -

Sheraton Moriah,Crowne Plaza,Dan Panorama,Renaissance are not as good as the first two IMO but still GREAT hotels.
Location = GREAT ,most of the hotels i mentioned here are ON the beach.

For the peopel that just want to sleep "ok" i think : Melody and Howard Johnson - Shalom will be good for them.

That's a very good 5-stars hotel...
Very close to beach & old city of Jaffa.

Just to confirm that the Standupforboysingreen.com trip is definitely going ahead as they have had sufficient uptake to fly.We were in contact with them Monday to confirm just before we pay the second installment.

Anyone know if airport tax is normally included in a travel agents initial quoted price?I was expecting to have to pay �700 as originally stated but now its �760 becouse of airport fees.Is this common practise or should I be p!ssed?

Is the tour full or are they still taking names?

I know this way off topic but thought I would mention it

Brian Kerr was on Radio Foyle this evening and was urging people to get to the Israel game if they can. He was talking about how the growth in support from the disappointing numbers that went to Albania and Georgia, and how the army had gone to Paris had really lifted the players.

Kerr spoke about the difficulties of getting there but reminded people how it was a beautiful country and how the players would really appreciate the support
