Ormax Chauffeur Service stranded me on the roadside and held my luggage hostage in Israel

I took a long flight to Israel and had booked a ride from the airport with Ormax's VIP Israel Airport Transfer service https://ormax.co.il/vip-israel-airport-transfers/ which was a complete disaster. Never again. Ormax is a scam.

The Ormax driver who picked me up was rude and smelled of alcohol, and the vehicle interior had a strong odor of smoke. Shortly after pulling away from the curb the vehicle's engine quit. The driver got out and worked on the engine for a bit and then told me to wait for a replacement car. After approximately 45 minutes I decided to walk back to the terminal and find another ride on my own. The driver became irate and would not allow me to leave. He demanded payment for the short ride and refused to open the trunk so I could get my bags. He would not accept credit cards and demanded cash. I had no choice so I paid him and hiked back on foot to the airport, dragging my luggage. It was a hot day and I was sweating profusely but the smoke from inside the car still clung to my skin and clothes the rest of the day.

I will never do business with this company again and recommend others to avoid Ormax Airport Transfer Service.

Hi thank you for that warning. I also had a recent bad experience with Ormax https://ormax.co.il/vip-israel-airport-transfers/ when the driver stole my wallet at Ben-Gurion Airport. I am absolutely sure the Ormax driver picked my pocket because I had just placed a business card in my wallet and put it in my back pocket before I got into the car. I distinctly remember the driver brushed against me in a somewhat awkward manner as he opened the car door. I have called and emailed the Ormax offices but they refuse to cooperate, and I also made a police report. I have since heard that Ormax are a shady company with criminal connections.

Be thankful you didn't end up in Gaza. Some of the Ormax drivers are known Hamas members.

Ormax vehicles were used to kidnap Israeli civilians and transport them to Gaza on 7 October. Many of the Ormax drivers are Hamas.

Ormax should give the Hamas campers rides to and from campus.
