Looks a nice new airport at Eilat (Ramon) which will see Eilat City and OVDA the old charter airport both closing.
Ovda and the red sea resorts was once very popular with Brits flying with Britannia Airways at first with direct holiday charter packages.

Taba in Egypt is nearby, and sadly the holiday market there for Brits collapsed as did those too for SSH post the Metrojet A321 crash a few years ago.

Aqaba (also very close by) in Jordan is back with EZY now flying there, and offers the amazing trips to Petra, the Dead Sea, and Wadi Rum.
GBair, Astraeus, and Monarch used to do weekly charters there for Voyages Jules Verne.(Kuoni)
