Most Oranim Israel participants leaving on US and Canadian departures have the option of extending their ticket to remain in Israel beyond the program. Extending will only be possible once Oranim has notified you that you have been ticketed on a specific flight.

We highly recommend that you extend you stay prior to leaving the US or Canada since all seats are subject to availability. Oranim cannot offer any assistance before or after your trip in extending your flight.

If your group is traveling on Continental, Delta or El Al, you have two options to extend your trip (Options 1 or 2 below). If your group is traveling on Alitalia, Swiss or Turkish Airlines, only Option 1 below applies to you.

• Option 1: Arrange your extension with Gil Travel directly on their website at http://www.giltravel.com/extensionsinfo.htm prior to leaving for your trip. Extensions are not handled by telephone - please do not contact Gil Travel by phone.

• Option 2: Wait and extend your ticket while on your trip in Israel. Your Tour Guide will have the necessary airline contact information on your bus. This option, however, does not guarantee you'll be able to extend your ticket within your availability and is not available for all airlines.

Details related to each airlines' specific fees are outlined below (these details are subject to change without notice - Oranim is not liable for any changes):

Airline	Option 1: Extend from US or Canada Before Through Gil Travel	Option 2: Extend in Israel
	Fee: $225 includes processing Maximum stay 90 days from departure A limited number of participants per group can extend	$150*
	Fee: $175 includes processing Maximum stay 2 months from departure A limited number of participants per group can extend	$100*

	Fee: $275 includes processing Maximum stay 2 months from departure A limited number of participants per group can extend	Extensions are not permitted in Israel
* While these airlines allow you to extend your ticket when you are in Israel, availability will be very limited. If you have a specific date you need to return by, we urge you to arrange your extension ahead of time via Gil Travel as described in Option 1.

You are not allowed to leave the trip before it is officially over. Do not make plans to leave before the group is on their way to the airport. Your Oranim Israel ticket will be null and void after the dates stated above.

Please be aware that that once your Oranim Israel program has concluded, you will no longer be under the supervision or responsibility of Oranim Israel or Oranim Educational Initiatives.
