TLV-MCO In El Al's Future?

Considering that bigger fish like IAD, MIA, ORD, and SFO don't have service to TLV I'd say they're wasting their time, but who knows.

I'd say there are more Israelis in Florida than in Chi-town or DC. SFO is a bit far for a direct flight, LY codeshares with other carriers.

Fair point, but I don't think it'll be a flop. They'd probably have one flight a week...

My guess is that they start TLV-MIA-GRU 3x Weekly

No, but have been very successful with it and may add more flights

Why would anyone want to fly to GRU via MIA (nearly doubling the trip length) instead of nonstop then?
Maybe TLV-MIA-EZE if anything.

I don't think they are allowed to fly to EZE being that (50 years ago) Israel brought in one of their planes to capture Eichman.

Interesting, source?

Seems like such flights won't happen because because South Americans need a visa (expensive and not easy to get) to transit via the US.

No, they are not required for flights that transit. People can just stay on the plane like EK does with transiting Australia en-route to New Zealand

Maybe Disney is running some big campaigns in Israel for their theme parks.

Especially considering the fact that there are so many that can afford the $65 admission fee

$82 for 1 day/1 park or $136 for a 1 day park hopper.

Why not?  Always wondered why there's no amusement park in Israel.

There's a water park near the Kinneret. Nothing in Israel is built to accommodate the amount of guest that actually come to visit. The water park for example is tiny and the word "mobbed" doesn't do justice. Take Malcha mall for another example, relatively small mall on American standards and at times you cannot walk 10 seconds without bumping into someone.

Also I haven't been to the park in France but I feel that Disney is as America as you can get. The characters would basically all make it into "The American Movie Characters Hall of Fame" (were this to exist). I can't picture Mickey Mouse and Aladdin talking ivrit. (this may just be me)
