Record Number of Tourists in Israel
Almost 3.5 Million Visitor Arrivals in 2010
In 2010, there were close to 3.5 million visitor arrivals – a record number since the
founding of the State of Israel and an encouraging start to the second decade of the
21st century, especially since most of the years of the first decade were
characterized by a low point in tourism.
2010 (Table A): Visitors – Tourists and Day Visitors
Visitors
In 2010, there were 3.45 million visitor arrivals to Israel, an all-time record. This was an
increase of 26% compared to 2009 (in January 2009, due to Operation "Cast Lead" in the
Gaza Strip there was a decline in the number of visitor arrivals to Israel), and a 14%
increase compared to 2008, which was the previous record year.
Tourists1
There were 2.8 million tourist arrivals in 2010 – an all-time record – and among them 2.3
million were by air – an increase of 18% compared to 2009 and an increase of 10%
compared to 2008.
Of arrivals by air most of them (2.3 million) were via Ben Gurion Airport (an increase of
18% compared to 2009) and 60,000 arrivals were from Elat (up 23% over 2009).
Tourist – a visitor who stayed in Israel and departed on a date that was different from the date of entry (i.e., not on the
same day).

Day Visitors2
During 2010, there were 642,000 arrivals of day visitors (169,000 of those were cruise
passengers3) – an increase of 53% compared to 2009. This increase can be explained by
the decline in arrivals in 2009 due to Operation Cast Lead. The increase in arrivals of
visitors by land and of cruise passengers was even greater, but the total increase was
curtailed somewhat by a 17% decline in arrivals by air (the day visitor arrivals by way of air
comprised only 11% of the total arrivals of day visitors in 2010).

The number of arrivals of cruise passengers in 2010 was more than double
compared to 2009 and more than 3 times that of 2008.
December 2010 (Table A)

9,000 arrivals were on direct flights to Elat.


border crossing (Taba). Almost all of the arrivals of day visitors by way of air –
3,000 arrivals – were through Ben Gurion airport.

crossing (Taba) - December 2010:

Visitor Arrivals from 2000 to 2010 – Overview
The millennium year (2000) looked more promising than ever and was supposed to
be a year of a turning point for tourism. There was hope for a surge in tourism due
to the Pope's visit in March 2000, however, the Second Intifada broke out in the last
quarter of the year and dashed these hopes. The year finished with a moderate
increase of only 4% compared to 1999.
At the end of 2000, and the years that followed there were many security incidents
(a continuation of the Second Intifada 2001-2003, the Second Lebanon War in 2006
and Operation Cast Lead in Gaza in 2009). Only eight years later (in 2008), was the
previous record of the year 2000 broken.
In 2007, a new phenomenon of day visitors by land began - most of the day visitor
arrivals by land were visitors from East European countries entering Israel from
Sinai via the Elat border crossing (Taba). (See Diagram 2, and Table B).
In 2007 the day visitor arrivals were 10% of all visitor arrivals, and in 2010, they
comprised 19% of the arrivals.
Altogether there were over 20 million visitor arrivals from 2001–2010, 2 million
visitors on the average per year. The year of the lowest point was 2002 (862,000
visitors), the peak year was 2010 (as mentioned, approximately 3.5 million arrivals).
The Decade of 2000-2010 – Visitor Arrivals (Diagram 1)

2001 was characterized by the decrease in foreign visitor arrivals that began in the
last quarter of 2000 (the outbreak of the Second Intifada). The low point in visitor
arrivals deepened especially in 2002 (less than one million visitor arrivals).

Although in the years 2003-2004 there began to be a recovery in the number of
arrivals, it was still low (1.3 million on the average per year). In 2005 there was a
recovery and there were nearly 2 million arrivals.

2006 was marked by the Second Lebanon War (July 2006), which was followed by
a sharp drop in arrivals in the period between July to December (the year ended
with 1.8 million arrivals).

2007 was a turning point, and the number of visitor arrivals exceeded 2 million
arrivals (2.3 million).

2008 was a bountiful year in visitor arrivals and there were more than 3 million
visitors.

2009 began at a low point (due to Operation "Cast Lead"), which lasted for the first
half of this year, and at the end there were 2.7 million visitor arrivals.

2009. Regarding the arrivals from the Ukraine, the proportion of day visitors
declined from 49% among all the arrivals to 39% in 2010. There was an
increase of 24% in the visitor arrivals from Germany compared to 2009.
Day Visitors4
Over the course of the decade the number of cruise passengers declined and in the years
2002-2007 it almost dropped to nothing. Beginning in 2008, there was a recovery in the
traffic of tourist ships that anchored in the Israeli ports and the number of cruise
passengers rose progressively from 46,000 visitors in 2008 to 169,000 visitors in 2010.
Simultaneously, the phenomenon of day visitors expanded very much, especially by way
of land. In 2007 the day visitors comprised 10% of the total visitor arrivals to Israel,
whereas in 2010 the percentage of day visitor arrivals increased to 19%.

Tourist Arrivals (Air and Land) Seasonal and Trend Adjusted Data5
(Diagrams 1 and 2, Table 2)
An analysis of the seasonally adjusted data indicated that in the last three months,
October - December 2010, there were 245,000 tourist arrivals on the average per month
(2.9 million at annual level), whereas in the months July - September 2010 there was an
average of 228,000 visitors per month (2.7 million at annual level).

An analysis of the trend indicated that in the last three months, October December 2010, there was an increase of 5% at annual calculation (an
average of 0.4% per month), in comparison to July - September 2010 in
which there was an increase of 8% at annual calculation (an average of
0.6% per month).
Tourist Arrivals by Air
(Diagrams 3 and 4, Table 2)
An analysis of the seasonally adjusted data indicated that in the last three months,
October - December 2010, there was an average of 202,000 tourist arrivals per month
(2.4 million at annual level), and this was after there was an average of 187,000 tourist

this was similar to July - September 2010.
A detailed and updated explanation about the process of seasonal and trend adjustment is published in
Seasonal and Prior Adjustment Factors for 2010, Trends for 2006-2010 (on the CBS website alone:
Definitions, Classifications, and Methodology, Statistical Methods, Time Series).
The next Press Release on the subject "Visitor Arrivals to Israel in January 2011"
was published on February 9, 2011.
5
The data of tourist arrivals in Israel are influenced by seasonal changes, therefore, they should be analyzed based on
seasonally and trend adjusted data. Despite this, it should be emphasized that because of the calculation methodology
used in the CBS, the trend of the last months is likely to change when new data are received or an update of the
previous new data.
