Thanks...
Going to Israel with the $500ish Swiss airlines deal from Boston. Jan. 6th - Jan 25th.
Using Avios to get from NY (Where we live) to Boston - 11 Hour Layover in Zurich - Israel.
Same way back TLV-ZRH-BOS. and than BOS-LGA.
Found two $200 SWISS vouchers for $100 on ebay so that brought my fare down to $400ish each ticket.
Its my first "booking"...I found out later there were direct Elal fares for like $700 from JFK so at the end of the day its not the biggest savings. Im not flying in J class
or anything special lol .
Plus, I booked direct with SWISS and they charge $25 each leg to make seat selections which I wasn't gonna pay.
For all I know me and my brother could be seated on other sides of the plane.
