EL AL denied passanger
« on: March 15, 2013, 12:05:21 PM »
when flying EL AL before yom tov, what would be there compensation for voluntary giving up your seat? any recent experience?

USA-TLV-USA

When they rebook you, do you have a choice of dates? (immediate or a few weeks later?)

TIA

they call it denied, but it is voluntary. want to know if I should offer my seat, and what to expect in return, especially when its Erev YT.

I know each airline has its own schedule, and international during prime time may be a consideration as well.

If you volunteer your seat you will get some sort of compensation.
