I believe El Al. Do you know otherwise (that it's leased?)?
No clue, that's why I asked.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Just curious, would this help solve the mystery?

Did any of the other agents realize how premium economy is going out with empty loads lately each and every day? Just take a look this. It's all 9...  Looks like what I said came true. Elal saw people go for it, so they decided let's hike the price. Q class costed almost as much as J class  :o

The result are in. Very empty loads.

Tonight's flight to EWR went out very full. Earlier today it was W0, and a few hours before departure, I saw W3 Q3
It's gonna have to come down. It's just a matter of time. Sometime between now and next winter (when PE capacity will be 4x the amount it is now)

P class needs a refuha. It's full award+upgrades+revenue. Upgrades to PE costs more then just P revenue

PE is being marketed as E+ for $200 each way like on the flights to LON.
It's probably the trial for the new second aircraft that will start flying to EWR on Mar 25, because I don't see any of these flights scheduled past Mar 25

On the Dreamliner specifically or in general?
Row 21 is always blocked for Gold member or higher (will open when you add a FF number) or is bookable for M class and up

Correct 3+ infant
I would take any of the honeymoon seats, like 9 D and G, plus one of the side seats which face towards the aisle, so 9 K for example
