For a first visit, El Al, Israel's national carrier, has devised sen- sible, short-term programs which give visitors at least a taste of Pe- tra. The 1995 Milk & Honey va- cations, ranging from three to 15 nights, offer a wide range of ac- commodations, touring options (like the extension to Jordan) and other attractive features. In many respects, all of Jordan is an archaeological dig waiting to happen. • " CAIII).

It provides them with what are described as "top value" hotels in either Jerusalem or Tel Aviv at $22 per night, full Israeli buffet break- fasts and a car rental at $9 per day with unlimited mileage. The cost of air fare on all packages is additional. One of the two extensions to Jordan is called the "Classic." It is a four-day, three-night pro- gram with departures from Tel Aviv or Jerusalem every Thurs- day, a river crossing at the Al- lenby Bridge, guided tours of the major sites, hotels and full break- fasts. Rates range between $287 in three-star hotels to $415 in five-star establishments. The Petra Extension of two days and one night offers depar- tures on Sundays and Wednes- days from Eilat, a crossing into Jordan at Arava just north of Eilat, an overnight in Aqaba and a full day at Petra. The price of the program ranges between $194 for a tourist class hotel to $220 for first-class. Breakfasts and dinners are included in both categories. Since Petra is much closer to the Arava crossing at Eilat than to the northern crossing at the Allenby Bridge, visitors who take the Arava route will have sever- al more hours to spend in Petra. Reservations for El Al's Israel and Jordan should be made through local travel agents. Shabbat Policy On El Al Jerusalem (JTA) — Israel's na- tional air carrier, El Al, will con- tinue its longstanding policy of not flying on Shabbat, Trans- portation Minister Yisrael Kessar has said. His statement came amid word that the privatization of the airline could lead to a change in policy.
