Can I Use Frequent Flyer Miles to Purchase My Airline Ticket?

You cannot use miles for group flights. If you wish to use frequent flyer miles, please request the self-arranged option. If you choose the group flight, you can add your frequent flyer number to your eTicket at the time of check-in to earn miles for the flight (depending on the airline).

What Out-of-Pocket Expenses Should I Expect?

Please bring spending money for lunches (about $20–30 per day), sodas, bottled water, and personal expenses such as souvenirs, laundry, or room service.

Should I Bring My Young Children on the Tour?

Young children may find the pace of the tour to be too rigorous and may find the time on the tour bus and quiet times of teaching challenging. We recommend that guests be age 13 or above.

How Much Walking Will We Be Doing?

Seeing Israel is not a looking-out-the-bus-window-experience. Our tours are a feet-on-the-ground adventure that requires travelers to be in generally good health and is responsible to have independent mobility and strength.

There is a significant amount of walking over uneven archaeological terrain and nature pathways as well as up hills and ancient stairs. To participate in this tour successfully, you should be able to climb two flights of stairs without assistance and walk at a modest pace for a mile, as well as be able to stand in potentially hot weather.

Individuals registering for this journey accept the responsibility for being in good health and able to walk without assistance. If you require a cane, crutches, wheelchair, or personal assistance to walk, sorry but this is not the trip for you. You must be physically able to independently walk and travel with the tour group. If you have questions about this, please reach out to Messianic Journeys.
