The first charter flight program to Israel from the U.S. West Coast will start by mid-November, the Jerusalem Post reported today. The program, to be operated by Creative World Travel of Los Angeles, will take place for five months, with passengers flown in every two weeks by World Airways. The groups to be flown in by Creative are on a package deal that includes everything but board. The participants will be accommodated in the Jerusalem and Tel Aviv Hilton Hotels, but are free to eat where they like.
