Has anyone flown LOT recently? How was the experience? Thinking of flying NYC-TLV via Warsaw (with wife and infant). Also; is it possible to do a quick tour of the older Jewish parts and/or cemeteries of Warsaw on a 12-14 hour stopover? Thanks!

Was wondering same. Thinking about an 8 hour stop on the way from TLV-EWR

it should be ok to visit the cemetery & the Jewish area, you can also visit the Jewish museum.

Difficult to decipher Lot's change/cancelation policy for tickets originating in the US. Anyone with recent experience?

Is it worthwhile to make a stopover for this

Whatsapp worked great for me. I left a message and a few hours later a human agent responded and took care of both the meal and seat selection.

Late reply, but just had a similar experience. The website seems to only allow a paid option, worse than that, it is only offering cake and prosecco. I tried the Facebook messenger option a number of times, and received no reply period. I tried it the other day at around 11 p.m. local time in Europe, sending my confirmation code, passenger name's karma and the request for kosher meals to be added to all flight segments. within minutes I had a reply from an agent saying she had taken care of it, and when checking in for my flight today, lo and behold, the kosher meal request is there for all flights segments

Don't they mean suspending for the winter season? If they are not flying in the winter and not flying in the summer, when are they flying?

LOT Polish Airlines is excited to announce additional nonstop flights from JFK to WAW.

Starting from June 2023 until the end of September 2023, we will increase the number of operations to 14 weekly flights between the JFK airport and Warsaw, providing passengers with even more travel options and great connections to over one hundred destinations in Europe and beyond.

All flights are already available in the reservation systems.

In addition to daily LO026 and LO027, we will also operate LO006 and LO007.

Beside JFK, LOT will also operate 5-weekly flights from Newark to Warsaw, plus weekly nonstop connections to Krakow and Rzeszow.
