Nice, good to hear.  Did you use the original tickets or did you "upgrade" to direct?

Also if I may ask, what can you do there for 2 full days?  Doesn't the Dead Sea get boring after a while?
Thanks.

Does anyone know whether El Al allows greater flexibility for rescheduling or cancelling tickets (such as the glitch tickets) given the heightened tension in Israel now?

Switched to El-Al non-stop.

I'm having a blonde moment:

1) What's my baggage allowance? I believe it's 1x50 lbs (I have no status on el-al.)

2) Besides for having status on elal, what other status, if any, would help me increase your answer to #1?

Again I would say it depends who you're going with and what your plans are.

Any idea on the second?
I know my AA status didn't count for anything.

Just got back.
There is something special about being there during a war. Maybe I'm crazy but it brings out the Zionist in me.

Having some otherwise-useless Matmid points lying around to burn on luggage vouchers. That's about it.

No problem. Just be aware that the points must be your own, or those of your traveling companion. You cannot buy/borrow someone else's points.

So can anyone confirm how many miles were earned on the stopover flight from NYC to TLV?


Also, when trying to reach status with AA does the miles earned from flying ELAL count?
