passengers holding these tickets should email EL AL between August 14 and 31, 2012

I think I will be changing the tickets I purchased to direct with LY, after all it is an Israeli airline, and this way they will not be loosing money, I do not enjoy seeing them loose so much money.

OPTION TO FLY NONSTOP IS AVAILABLE.

EL AL Israel Airlines is announcing that the tickets which were purchased on a variety of travel internet sites and ticketed earlier this week (on August 6th) will be honored. In addition, EL AL is offering a more convenient option to anyone who has been ticketed at one of these low fares on flights from the USA to Israel.

The tickets that these passengers are currently holding are for travel via a stopover in Europe in both directions. However, to better accommodate these passengers, EL AL is offering a choice to travel nonstop roundtrip to Israel from New York (JFK or Newark) for an additional cost of $75 each way. Yet another choice is that EL AL is offering a full refund without penalty to anyone wishing to cancel their tickets. To take advantage of the nonstop flights or to cancel, passengers holding these tickets should email EL AL between August 14 and 31, 2012 via email to flydirect@elalusa.com and an EL AL representative will respond to the request."

They’re probably doing this because a seat on their metal cost them less than having to pay partner for the TATL segment. It also puts an extra $75 in their pocket.

They don't state specifically, but guaranteed they mean per person. I am in the travel industry, and when an airline says there is a fee for any type of change, etc. they always mean per person

Okay, I'm gonna spell it out for you.
You asked Is it $75 PP or per itin.? Dvol wrote back $75 per person per way. I think it's obious that it's per person, but I asked him how he knows about per way. He wrote back showing that it's per way.

Is there proof about pp? No. I do think it's pretty obvious that they won't let a 10 person itinerary switch for the same price as an individual.
