Psst..wanna cheap holiday near Eilat?

Then go to sunny Aqaba with Israeli airline Arkia. Angered that El Al will now be allowed to fly to Eilat, Arkia are going to do cheap package deals in the Jordanian resort ($400 for four nights at a 5-star hotel, try getting that in Eilat). Aqaba is great, none of the squallor of Eilat's sea front or its crowds and overcharging, yet all of the great weather. And you get to go there with an Israeli airline.
