Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Tel Aviv to John F Kennedy Intl 
OlgaFlew with EL AL-May 2026
There is only one airport. The security at the airport is the same for all flights. Be aware that Israeli security does not include checking for liquids. So they do that at the gate for flights flying to the USA. Also be aware that you need to go through security *before* checking in at the counters.

No drinking bottles above 100ml when boarding, even if it is from the duty free.
