My bad. It looks like the last 747 on schedule is Sep 14 (Motzei Shabbos)
(I guess the "subject to change" was correct....)

This sums up how a US company upcharges and gets PR for a special flight vs El Al:

Unlike with UA, the plane is still in service flying to BKK. But they definitely could have made a bigger splash of their farewell in the US....

Could be. Strangely the LY award search tool is showing 2 (or more) in both cabins. But it can only be booked over the phone via Sundor. and I just called and they said it's all booked. She said very likely for seats to open from cancellations etc. so she took down a number.

Please don't insult the queen due to El Al's poor maintenance of her.

From the DDMS, you seem under the impression that it's a standard flight... Did you read the ad about the flight?
