The rail journey from Ben Gurion Airport to Tel Aviv Central Station takes 15-20 minutes (with intermediate stops at Tel Aviv's HaShalom and HaHagana stations). Most Northbound trains from the airport then continue past Tel Aviv and terminate in Nahariya in northern Israel (for a total journey of about 2 hours from the airport). The service to and from Tel Aviv operates 24 hours a day hours except on Shabbat (i.e., from Friday evening to Saturday evenings) and on Jewish Holidays. During the day and evening hours it operates twice per hour and in the opposite direction from the airport terminates in Modi'in to the southeast. During early morning hours there is one train per hour to and from Nahariya, which continues south to Kiryat Gat and Beersheba via Lod.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“True love ennobles and dignifies the material labors of life; and homely services rendered for love’s sake have in them a poetry that is immortal.”
—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
“A good marriage ... is a sweet association in life: full of constancy, trust, and an infinite number of useful and solid services and mutual obligations.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
