Friends, family and Aliyah enthusiasts come to Ben Gurion Airport to greet the new arrivals.
The well-wishers wait inside the "old" Ben Gurion terminal for the new Israelis to arrive.
The plane arrives - cheers and song fill the morning air.
Baby oleh.
Nefesh b'Nefesh co-founders Rabbi Yehoshua Fass and Tony Gelbart address the new olim.
Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, who left his congregation in Manhatten, inviting them to join him in making Aliyah to the Gush Etzion town of Efrat, addresses the new immigrants.
"Blow a great shofar for our freedom, and raise a banner to gather in our exiles"
