I don't think they sold BE to Israel until now.
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.

Basic economy
But regular seats you can? I want to extend my AA mileage (its running out soon), so I want to book a ticket, extend it, then cancel the ticket. Is this a crazy idea or realistic?

Mileage tickets have free cancellations. Not sure if they extend the expiration.
