I think the OP wants a flight that he does not have to come in that situation.
It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.

i really had 2 questions. would a non elal direct flight have a minyan or are there any stopover flights that are short enough to make it to a shul in the connecting city. my first question seems to have been answered.

BS.  I recently flew UA direct a few times.  On not one of the flights did I get a minyan.  Fact.
I must commend those UA FA's, most were very welcoming, even to the point of trying to help me put together a minyan :D!

El Al is the worst when it comes to it. This like everything with el al.
I also didn't have a good experience with the Germans on Lufthansa. Surprise.

I've had a minyan every time on DL and UA.
Heck people from coach came to BF to wake me up for shacharis.
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.
