Our example trip leaves LAX at 7:20 PM on Thursday, February 6 and arrives London Heathrow at 1:35 PM on Friday. You have plenty of time to enjoy the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse! Then, take a 5:55 PM flight to Tel Aviv. You arrive at 12:55 AM on Saturday morning/late Friday night.
You have all day Saturday to explore Tel Aviv, relax at your hotel, or do whatever.
On Sunday, depart TLV at 7:00 AM and arrive in London at 10:20 AM. Your 1:15 PM connection gets back to Los Angeles at 4:35 PM.
February has the most available dates. A few others sneak in here and there through April.
