How does sharing a taxi from Ashkelon to the airport work?
You write your trip in one sentence and PairMee shows the people already heading the same way at a similar time. You ask to join, or, if nobody is going yet, the same sentence becomes your ride post and you approve who joins. Everyone meets at the agreed point, shares one taxi, and splits the meter directly. It is free either way.
Is there a sherut from Ashkelon to Ben Gurion in 2026?
The shared sherut van services that connected Ben Gurion no longer operate. Today the options are the train where a station exists (not on Shabbat), a solo taxi, or a taxi shared between passengers.
