A group of about 50 chareidim landed on erev Shabbos in Ben-Gurion International Airport after a flight from London was delayed. The plane landed at 4:25PM officially, but they actually got off the flight and hit the ground it was closer to 4:40PM.
Berela Yakobovitz of Zaka’s 410 Team was on hand to meet them to get them to Bnei Brak before shekiyah. A bus was waiting as they disembarked, expediting passport control at that location, to whisk them to Bnei Brak.
At 5:00, a number of minutes before shekiyah, they got off the bus at Bar Ilan Interchange and began walking, men, women and children heading to the Vishnitz Hotel in the Torah city.

Truly honoring Shabbos would have been to stay in London for Shabbos.
Just don’t fly on Erev Shabbos if possible. Personally I have never flown on Erev Shabbos and I intend to continue (not) doing so.
Agree! Don’t fly on Erev Shabbos!
For Susie Selmar, Jason Ostro, Nachman Behar who stayed in Golders Green for Shabbos we had a wonderful time! No Hassle 🙂
What did the bus driver do? Did he park his bus and stay in Bnei Brak, or was he mechallel Shabbos for the sake of the frum passengers?
