Beaubo also pointed out to me another good thing about RJ:
http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/5533
JFK-AMM: 9,235 kms. (20,000 SPG via LAN)
AMM-TLV: 109 kms. (2,400 SPG via LAN)

 Not Bad , but the very lengthy layover is a killer for me. Last month I had a 4hr layover @ LYS on my way to VIE we got in 2 hrs early = a 6hr layover, no way would I want to do something like that again. Now if its a real long one and theres things to see/do in the city I have no objections. Ive done 12 hrs+ @ CDG and LHR But AMM is not a place Id want to head to town.So Id rather use more miles and do an overnight somewhere in Europe that Id like to spend some time or just have a quick connection

 But please do a report about AMM if you ever make it there

See my new post about *A award on ANA to TLV for a mere 50K SPG in E and 75K SPG in B.

True, but RJ is a good choice during Succos/Pesach when every other airline will have zero award availability...maybe even worth camping out for 4 hours in an airport.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
