And what does "even" mean. Unless yoire coming on a charter, where fhere are no points to be used you must stop somewhere.

Trying to book TLV to lax leaving March 19th arriving back in Tlv April 10th. Prefer non stop. If not, a short stop. ECONOMY. Can't seem to find good availability. I have UR and MR. TIA

LHR-XXX-TLV in J avoiding YQ and APD

So far I have found separate itineraries TK LGW-IST 15k+ 57GBP and TK IST-TLV 17.5k +~$76 Need to have 2 bags 32kg. Does TK allow 2 bags in Y IST-TLV?

JFK - VIE ?
Y And J?
I think only Austrian Air flies direct, makes sense?
I see 30K United for Y is that the best?
And what about J?

They are the only ones who fly direct. Their J product is inferior to most other European carriers. 30k UA is your best Y option. I believe 55k AC is your best J option. A3 may be cheaper (45k) but expensive tp get through SPG.

55k AC will have $500+ YQ.
70k UA will have $0 YQ.

Unless you're transiting UK for less than 24 hours or a minor, no.

If you must use EY them 20K AA is best

CA has a nonstop as well that can be booked with 12.5 SQ but not sure about YQ

You can also use 14K QF for a nonstop on MU and again I am not sure about the YQ
