Services
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. In September 2012 the station handled an average of 11,000 passengers daily.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“Men will say that in supporting their wives, in furnishing them with houses and food and clothes, they are giving the women as much money as they could ever hope to earn by any other profession. I grant it; but between the independent wage-earner and the one who is given his keep for his services is the difference between the free-born and the chattel.”
—Elizabeth M. Gilmer (1861–1951)
“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)
