HOT! TLV-NYC for Pesach $624 round-trip on Aeroflot!
« on: November 25, 2014, 12:22:37 PM »
Price just dropped today. Was $50 more yesterday and I booked it a week ago at $798 :(.
Regarding all the negativity about flying with the Russian airlines, I have personally spoken with a number of friends who flew with them and were very happy.
Stops are about 3-4 hours. Although on certain dates its only available at that price for longer stopovers.
Sample available dates are 3/18 (3 days b4 Rosh Chodesh) - 4/20 (Rosh Chodesh Iyar).
Many more dates available.
Any other airline (non-Russian or Ukrainian) is about $200 more and up.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Thats more than a month. 3/18 is 2 weeks before Pesach and 4/20 is a week after.

What did you book on?
First on Expedia.com, then cancelled within 24hrs and booked with a jewish travel agent. (Why not give a yid parnasah?)

There are many options available for closer to Pesach b4 and after, I just took a example that's practical for bochurim/kollel yungelite, looking to come in for the entire bein hazmanim.

Oh! Didn't see this was ex tlv.

Can't imagine why people go home Pesach.
When I was a bochur I stayed there.
As soon as the last guy gets on the plane to US it gets beautiful out.
A few guys stayed and we had the best time.
No I don't have ANY family there.

On a similar note, (but this one is not new from today, its old news) you can get one-way from NYC - TLV, after Pesach for as low as $315 on Cheapoair. Sample dates 3/15 (Wednesday b4 Rosh Chodesh) or 3/19 (1st day Rosh Chodesh).
Instructions: Search the exact date that you would like on kayak.com, select the link to cheapoair (will not work directly on cheapoair), price will be $330, use promo ny15 at checkout - price will drop an additional $15.

Be very careful of ChepOAir. The savings of a couple bucks is not worth it. If you need to make a change or cancellation you will be slammed with sky high fees. A lot of their fares are heavily restricted and not the same as what you would get on an OTA like Orbitz or Expedia for a couple bucks more.
