Menashe Sofer (Frum Service): A few NIS more than Nesher.

Train רכבת:

Starting from September 2018 there is a direct train line between the airport and Jerusalem's central bus station which is at the main entrance to the city.
Train runs every half hour and cost 17 shekel per ride. I think there is a discount if you buy round trip.

To get to the train: Leave the terminal through exit 01 and it is directly on your right. You can buy a ticket from the automatic machines outside the station entrance.
Please note that the train only runs during the day and not at night. Check the Israeli rail  website in advance if you are not sure.

Walk: 0 NIS Takes about 13 hous and 47 minutes give or take a few depending where you start.

Not with Daka 90!

And this driver is really nice and courteous, and actually has some patience. (And is not gonna try and rape you for an extra 10 shekel)
Which you can't exactly say about every other taxi!

Does anyone know how much the nesher is from ben gurion to the central bus station in Jerusalem.  I thiught in the past I saw on the sign it was significantly less.  Sometimes I ride around for an hour and would just rather get off first and take a 6 sh. Bus 5 minutes to my house.  Has anyone done this?

Do they take cash or CC?
If they take CC, it's a very new thing.  They will also accept $20. 
BTW, I'm not 100% sure about the 40 NIS.  I've heard...
Lavi Express took CC only, but I don't know if they still exist.
