Some comments:
I see TLV - Rome for as low as around $170 RT, and cheaper if you can leave on shabbos (via the use of many shinuim). However, besides shabbos, there is only 1 other weekly flight.

TLV - Geneva has very good outbound fares, but high return fares. Can probably build an itin for <$250 if you can make the dates work.

TLV - Manchester can be had for under $225.

TLV - Basel has good prices in both directions for around $175 total.

Keep in mind that many of these prices aren't for the summer months (EasyJet doesn't show availability out that far), and they are only this low when booking a few months in advance.

There is.
LCCs don't generally have spare 777s.

Hmm interesting!  It leaves on Shabbos?  Or close to Shabbos?

Can you expound (or link) on what you're referring to with those shinuiyim?! :D

+1000000
Many a time the fares are way higher than this.

Ask your LRR

I see months of these prices, but usually from November thru March.

I wonder if this will do anything to lower prices to Canada.
http://www.globes.co.il/serveen/globes/docview.asp?did=1000884204

Oddly enough, Katz said it'll increase it to 12 a week, but according to the article it's already 11 a week.

Also, a new LY no-show fee.

So they've added an allowance for 1 flight a week. Who cares?

That's why I'm wondering if I'm missing something in it.
It may also be to formalize something technical. I thought I had read that somewhere.

Acc to FT, the KE flight will now have lie flat beds in J.
What's the cheapest way to fly J to ICN? On the way to the US? (I remember that Dan did this a few years ago.)
