Excellent, more time to spend in BA's LHR J class lounge.
Also you can get amazing Hermolis meals at the lounge as well as on the flight-ask BA for more info.

I actually found Iberias seats be better JFK/MAD but MAD/TLV is regular coach seats with a vacant seat in-between. Iberia's service is almost as bad as El Al's. The stewardesses want to help, they just dont understand much english. The lounge in Madrid is ok, but nothing kosher besides for Coca-Cola. The BA lounge is top-notch with free massages and excellent hermoles meals (call before to make sure they have them in stock).

Thanks! Spoke to ba and they ordered for me the kosher meals, but they did not know anything about "Hermolis". Do I need to order kosher meals for jfk and lhr? They said it is always available at the lounges.

I believe that all catered food in LHR or on flights from LHR is done by Hermolis, and are probably the best kosher meals in the air.
Enjoy and be sure to let us know how it went!
