anyone ever do a VIP border crossing? im looking into taking a taxi to AMM and have slightly less then zero interest in an annoying border crossing experience. also don't really have patience to get a visa prior, anyone go through the other borders besides allenby?
I  heard guys had tefillin issues by the Aqaba crossing a few weeks ago.
Btw I had no problem leaving AMM with tefillin last month.

Is there anything to worry in regards to taking a taxi from the airport to Israel ? How much would a taxi cost me to yerushalayim for 3 people and multiple suitcases ?

Nothing to be nervous about, and you would need two taxis

Nothing to worry about in regards to safety, but it's a PITA and takes about 2 hours, unless you do the VIP service.
