EL AL Flights Now Bookable with Alaska Mileage Plan

[forums123]

Question - I signed up for the Alaska card and got the 70K bonus miles the month or two ago. There was flight availability showing on a bunch of business class el al NYC to TLV at the time. When they finally awarded my bonus miles I checked again and all of the availability was gone. Do they sometimes add more award availability? Is it cyclical? Not sure how these things work. Would definitely like to use all 70k miles on a business class seat rather than 35K for economy which is a significantly less worthwhile deal.

As with every other airline booking, make sure there's a ticket number for the infant

Alaska saying "We do not have ticket numbers for lap infants, you will only see them when you check in." Not the best sign...
