Why shouldn't it work?
It's basically an insurance, change fees range from $40 (SU etc.) to $300, I would think they would still come out ahead as most people won't change.

some tickets are not changeable at all.

I think the Elal Rov does certify the planes, so it technically is at least on par with rabbanut...

who certifies the dishes when they are cleaned in all the airports around the world?

I landed more than 3 hours late. Which airline to I file EU comp with?

you are not eligible since you left with AA from the USA, but try to ask from BA.

I flew JFK-TLV through LHR. First leg AA and second BA. The first flight was delayed and I missed the connection. They put me on LY when I got to LHR. One of the baggages were delayed. Who do I claim from? BA or LY? LY says it is BA issue since they didn't transfer it to LY.

usually the final carrier is responsible, but good luck with LY , they will always blame others.

Cutlery and plates were from the airline. They setup table properly and then bring the kosher meal.
